Y'know, I didn't think of playing hovering & reversing games. The one that particularly sticks in my mind was some miserable hour of the morning and all I wanted to do was go to bed. Didn't stop me wondering about the shape of the pattern. Mostly I was just happy to get back to the aid.

"Your words, not theirs, Marcus."
@DB6 I'm just quoting what i was told at their open day. I don't think its fair to sell this to people when its in no way true. I have also heard form various different people that there have been a number of IR fails in the last few months and that the students are being sent to ACS for further training.
The way the economy is these days, every penny helps and i don't like being lied to so that i'll give them some of my cash. Being told that there would be a job if i trained with Tayside has lost them a student. After another visit to ACS, i think i'll be spending my money there and (hopefully) pass my IR first time.
Thanks for all the comments.

I'm sure you will enjoy ACS. Went their 2012 and finished the IR in six weeks first time in minimum hours. This was down mostly to the experience and professional training ACS offered. And regards to IR fails at Tayside, haven't heard anything really regarding that. I only know of one person recently partialling at tayside.

I don't know anyone who would ever say you are guaranteed a job, pretty much guaranteed really means a high chance if you are actually any good. In this industry there are never any guarantees, surely everyone knows that.
