Randhem TR, any info?
 

Hi guys/girls,

Can anyone give some references about Randhem aviation in Sweden?

Quality of the training in USA, previous students getting (or not getting) jobs, etc...

Thanks

Randhem TR
 

Two Scandinavian guys recently returned homewithout completing their TR. According to them, they were given no preflight briefings except being handed the appropriate Jeppesen plates...

>So why are you posting and not them?

They are too busy completing their TRs somewhere else.

>Did they file a Deviation Report?

No idea.

>Did they report the problem to Randhem directly?

Yes.

Randhem 737 type + line training
 

Hello All,

Would love to hear from anyone that has done the 737 CL + NG Type rating and line training with Randhem.

After having a good look at the market place for type ratings they seem reasonably priced.. They also recon that the chances of being offered employment with the company that provides line training is very good.Bonus !! ( I realize they would say this!!).

So any constructive comments from guys and girls that have done this course would be great! Very interested to hear if it is true that you stand a good chance of employment with the line training provider after the 100hrs!:ok:

Thanks All

P.S

No anti type rating posts please, we all have to choose our own direction LOL. Thanks:)

Jet Airways
 

Hey guys and girls,
Jet Airways are looking for 1000 TT or 500 me OR 737 type rating with 100hrs!!!!

I talked to Johannes about this and although he wasn't saying that Jet Airways WILL take all the type rated guys that do the line training there is a good chance...
Just a bit more input to the thread...

Still looking to see if anyone can confirm the chance of staying on with the line training provider.... or if anyone has actually been sent on the Jet Airways deal:ok:

Thanks all:D

Randem Aviation
 

Randem Aviation, could you get your staff to check your inbox as im looking at doing a TR with you guys and no one is responding to me. After reading on here and no reply I am starting to get a bad vibe...

Has anybody done the TRI/SFI course with them?

Randhem Aviation - Goteborg
 

WARNING - WARNING !!!

Hi, please be more carefully with Randhem Aviation for training in B737 and A320 based in Goteborg.

The Approach price are good but it increase a lot with accomodation and extra training.

They Are NOT Organized, they haven't any Fixed Intructor so the schedule may change at last minute or without advised in advance, and/or you can change also 3 instructor during a couse.

It is a complete SELF-STUDY course.

So you spend a lot of more time for "time lost".

The Instructors are good.

This is a very expedite course (when instructor are available).

For any questions, contact me!

Randhem aviation - new flight training!
 

I accidentally got into www.randhem.com - and it seems like their updated their webpagers.. Now they are offering flight training. One programme goes in Europe, another one is first US then Europe.
and its all finished in 10 months..

Is this too good to be true?
What do you guys think about this?

AWAY of RANDHEM
 

They cancelled all the course for this summer.... :mad:

I do confirm what Pilot_Fling just said!!!
They cancelled the course for this summer ... no body answering on the phone ... I think I lost my reservations fee!!!:mad::mad::mad: F.U.C.K.!!

BE CAREFUL!!!!!!!!

Were you going to do A320 or B737?
I was told they had a busy TR course this summer but appearently they cancelled it?

737
 

Things seem to be up in the air with them at the moment, I was supposed to be doing a check ride on Sunday at Copenhagen (737) and its been cancelled, apparently all training in Scandinavia has been stopped, a blue air course has apparently started training in Amsterdam but it's impossible to get info, the owner is apparently in the US trying to sort things out there and may get back to us next week when he returns.

Randhem Aviation
 

Randhem Aviation = Bad News !

I lost $2000 + months of wasted time because of them... All I got was a sorry email

STAY AWAY !!!!

Warning -avoid Randhem Aviation
 

Guys, I've made the mistake of doing business with Randhem Aviation. I understand why some of you are a little annoyed.

My course was cancelled twice. I got my manuals 2 weeks before the course began. When the so called 21 day course did take place, it ran over time. I had to return home due work commitments and couldn't finish the course. According to my sim buddy, the course ended up lasting 5 1/2 weeks. I have not been able to return to sweden due work and now I have the expense of having to renew my MEIR. Randhem are refusing to refund me for any unused portion of my course. I've tried to reach a soultion but to no avail. They have ignored letters from my solicitor.

Do these people have any respect for their customers? Do they even realise the impact their conduct has had on peoples careers? What about the serious financial reprocussions experienced by those of us who have done business with them? Are they bothered?

My advice to anyone who is even thinking to train with these people is to stay away. I am stuck in a rutt and am unsure of even how to sort all this mess out. Whats keeping me going is the fact that my Ir renewal is going really well and I'm enjoying every minute.

Please don't make the same mistake as I did. If you value your licence,your future and your hard earned cash, stay away!

I do not recommend paying anything in advance to Randhem aviation at this moment - our company had to re-pay all sim sessions to OAA because money paid through Randhem never got to OAA. Had to pay instructor hard currency to have a last sim session - which was yesterday.
More details later.

Randhem bullshit.
 

I am one of randhem students in Riga for the 737tr.
They have cancell my course because they have problems with CAA.
Please if you are in the same situation, contact me [email protected]

Maybe we can press them to finish the course or to refund the money.

I regret not having posted sooner, as the predicaments of many others could have been avoided if they knew who and what they were dealing with.

I've had a few emails from people in a far worse mess than myself.

I'm still unsure what to do about my own situation! Any advice would be appreciated.

If it is of any help to anyone I spoke with Randhem yesterday and was told they no longer do the type rating in the United States at least. I was told though that Pan Am are going to still provide the TR with approval from the UK Caa. Thats all I know.

Randhem - A woeful story
 

I've just, I think, lost several thousand euros trying to do my instructor rating at randhem.... I should have known, but then hindsight is always 20/20....

The last word i've had from them is that they lost the caa approval.... I've lost count of how many emails/phone calls I've made to randhem. They have been unable, as yet, to complete the simulator part of the course. I am still hoping....

Please beware before parting with your cash

Sorry to hear what happened about your TRI course. I hate to think about the reprocussions it will have...

We are not the only ones out there who have lost thousands of pounds. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a great many more.

Do a search under "search". Read the posts and you'll see for yourself. If I were you, I'd go some where else.:mad:

In particular, search "Randhem" and "Jet Airways". And then think very hard about how comfortable you are, depositing large sums of money in trust with these guys.

And another thing - a JAA and USA FATPL/IR/MCC in 10 months?? Sure it's theoretically possible but, lets just say, I spent 5 years instructing CPL/IR and I bet you £10 that you can not find me a single person who's actually done it (or, if they did, are happy with the quality of what they received).

Thanks cessnagirl... just sent you an email... if enough of us can put pressure, then maybe something will move...

At least, others wont lose time and money....

They're not even answering the telephone today

That could mean a multitude of things!
Their normal website is down. Their Norwegan based pilot training school, Avia Training seems to be still in existence.

They claim to be having "difficulties with the swedish caa for approval of training in the US." and they have " decided to move their TRTO to the UK".

They have re opened in the UK under the name of "northern aerospace".

Hi,


Anyone has experience with this TRTO?

Regarsd,

Cessna310.

I had a bad experience and lost money because of the unprofessionalism at Randhem aviation. If the same people are involved here I don't see anything good happening either. Good luck,

SD
