Looking for any info from anyone who has done ME CPL/IR with Flying time at Shoreham Brighton Airport. Done a search but all posts are a few years old now. Was considering them for Modular CPL/IR anyone completed recently ? PM if you would prefer

FTA
Hi
I've been looking for the same information.
I've heard good things about FTA.
I am hesitating in between FTA & BCFT.
I've visited both of them. Both are very nice. And the price are exactly the same.
I'l like to start my CPL and IR in january/february 2016

Hi, Presumably still yet to find someone with experience of the integrated ATPL at FTA?
I visited them and was impressed with their set up. Probably my first choice school unless anything else changes. Would be good to find someone who has used them!

I'm also interested in find out more.
I'm considering FTA, BCFT, Airways Flight Training, Aeros & Bartolini.
Of the 5, I know of many pilots that have attended Aeros & Bartolini and have got jobs with airlines on jets. Airways and BCFT have a great reputation and have been around for years (but I've not come across anybody that has trained there).
And then there is FTA with their combination of sleek DA42's and good price tag.
If I find extra money down the sofa then maybe FTE Jarez would be on the cards (twice the price of Bartolini).
I have another 6 months before I enrol on a course, but would certainly be interested in speaking to ex-students.
Thanks

ATIS31: You are in Scotland. Why not do your PPL and hour building in the USA and then your ATPL written exams at Dunfermalin. Then you can do the CPL/IR anyplace you choose. There is a very good school in Perth.
Chicco04. The choice between BCFT and FTA comes down to housing. Do you have a friend or relative you can stay with in the area?
AlphaMale. Forget all the talk of jobs with airlines. It's all marketing, nothing more.
FTA and BCFT are both excellent choices. But don't forget to look at SFC Stapleford, another equal choice.
Bartolini is not for an integrated route. Only go there with your hours and written exams passed. Be careful, for it's easy to fall in love with Polish women. You may come back with more than you bargained for.
If you find money in a sofa, keep it, you'll need it later. Don't waste it.
But what I can't figure out is why you haven't got NFC and AFTA in Ireland on your list. It's just across the water from Wales.
I think that all you guys need to spend more time on the Modular Vs Integrated pages. Who knows if you'll even like flying.

Good quality of training at FTA but plan for spending over with the flight deck program. I neeeded 20k more few hours in the 42 landing fees and price increase during the course. All at standard prices as on the website. i would of probably got it cheaper going modular.
integrateds good for finishing in smaller time i managed it in just over 2 years but don't think it adds value when it comes to finding a job, unless your oxford or ctc
with any school i'd always look at whats included and whats not not just the nice price tag. harder if your not from this country originally! visas expensive!

In your post I can see that you have mentioned two schools which grabbed my attention FTA and Bartolini.
Since its been a while, have you started the training or finished it with any of the school mentioned and if so, whats your opinion if you mind sharing. Thanks
