Leeds Flying School or Multiflight for CPL/IR?
Hi,
Just got the results through this morning, and to my amazement have now passed all 14 of the ATPL exams.
I now need to decide on an FTO for the CPL/IR. Since I would like to do my training at Leeds/Bradford, I have narrowed it down to LFS or Multiflight.
If anyone has any experience of these two schools, I would greatly appreciate your inputs/opinions in order to help with my decision.
Many thanks,
Matt

I wouldn't get TOO excited about your choice of FTOs - the most important factor in your success (other than yourself) is your instructor, and I've noticed they tend to be at least semi-detached from the school. My experience is, for advanced flight training anyway, the FTOs' input doesn't go much further than supplying the aircraft.
Don't assume an instructor from school 'A' is better than one from school 'B' just because the former gets praised to high heaven on here and the latter gets slagged periodically. My instructor taught from a school 'A' in the morning, and from a school 'B' in the afternoon. He put just as much into both sets of students, and they achieved similar results. These weren't Leeds-Bradford FTOs, by the way!

Visit them both.
Ask questions like.
Do you get free solo time on the sim.
Do you fly at the weekend if needed.
I would go with N14 its not the school but the instructor which makes the difference.
I will admit I went to LFS and had no probs with Kevin Rowel.
