Naples Residential ATPL's ??
 

As most of you can probably guess, I am contemplating a full time ATPL course over the next few months and have a question for those people that are either current or past NAC students:

1. Did you find that having a non-british instructor affected your ability to learn in any way? i.e. different terminology / methods of teaching & explaining.

2. How many instructors where/are there, and what are their nationalities?

3. How many students were there in each class?

3. How did you find the course notes/facilities?

I have read many posts regarding the quality of flight training given by NAC, but I can't seem to find much feedback on the quality of the JAA ATPL groundschool.

Answers on a postcard please.......!!!

Hi ADRH,

I am a former NAC residential student.



The class sizes is one thing that sold me on NAC GS.. there was six in our class, 4 in the other.

There is a mix of instructors... two are english


The facillities are excellent... large desks with fast computers on them.


As a group we got great results, so they must be doing it right!!

All the best

feel free to PM me for further info

:ok:

Although not at NAC, I do teach at an European School.
The answers to some of your questions about non-british schools:

1. Our students are all learning in English which is not their mother tongue. The instructors here are Italian, Spanish and British. The English used is simple and aviation based.

2. Number of students to instructors is V inportant. I prefer to teach 6 students rather than 12. You appear to have more time to explain questions to 6. Also you tend to get less questions from 6. Never forget there are no stupid questions.

3. The course notes are in English. Our notes are Jeppesen (Oxford).

4. All FTOs are JAA approved and SHOULD give you the same quality.


I hope that gives you some insight to European Schools.

Good luck for the future.

Just wondering if anyone else has any more information
on the G/S in Naples. Would be looking at the September
start date myself.

Many thanks,
John
