Oxford Aviation Academy/ATPL training questions (Oxford Prefered)
 
Hi guys/girls,

I am looking at training at oxford to gain my Frozen ATPL and I was wondering if there are any proffesional pilots who have trained at Oxford who would not mind speeking to me through e-mail to tell me abit about it and what they did to get through the course,

I trained at Oxford, you can PM me any questions you have and i'll do what I can to help.

pilotho 14th Dec 2009 14:52

yep, i recently finished and awaiting TR. Keep these discussions in private as with anything with "oxford" on it, the thread will be taken way off track by gales and no answers can ever be landed.

much like an oxford grad in a 10knt xwind :p

pilotho 14th Dec 2009 16:55

ohhh that's below the belt, senecas are hard to fly you know!

mad_jock 14th Dec 2009 17:03

:ok: well done for taking it in the manner it was intended. ;)

Have fun on your type rating

pilotho 14th Dec 2009 17:06

as geoff from oxford would say, "most important thing is to have fun"

The only people who know how to fly an airplane come from Oxford! If you have Oxford on your CV, you will get a job immediately after completion. Other pilots will not because all other training is inferior and all airlines know this. Oxford is really neat.

I have just finished at Oxford in November and starting with Ryanair in March. Excellent training the airlines seem to like oxford graduates. I also have all the ground school books cd roms, jaa feedback if any one is interested in

pilotho 14th Dec 2009 17:19

Flying Scot 1985 14th Dec 2009 17:25

That statement says it all realy.....:ugh:

mad_jock 14th Dec 2009 17:29

nah they like your wallets.

Now go play on the oxford forums where there aren't any hairy arsed pilots to inform you of your error's in thinking.

Flying Scot 1985 14th Dec 2009 17:59

Bitter, eh!! why are you on this thread. Have you got a job????

mad_jock 14th Dec 2009 18:14

yep and 2 type ratings which I haven't paid for no bond no debt 4000+ hours and currently in the LHS of a turbo prop.

You can presume the hairy arse.

And current secondary duty is to find 4 * Jetstream 31 and 2 Jetstream 41 crew. And before you ask they ain't low houred wannabie jobs.

Dane-Ger 14th Dec 2009 18:36

Well, that'll be your PM inbox full for the next 3 months mad jock ;-)

Flying Scot 1985 14th Dec 2009 18:53

why are you on this thread then

mad_jock 14th Dec 2009 18:55

Nah I doudt it, available type rated ICAO pilots with ratings are like rocking horse ****e still on certain types.

737 rating you can wipe you bum with its worthless. Which is what alot of wannbies don't understand when they buy a rating on a shiny jet. They have killed any chances of working in what will be the initial growth of the future. You can have 5000 hours on jets at the moment and nobody will look at your CV. 1000 hours of TP time and still have a rating inside 5 years and you can pick up work.
