The J N Somers Scholarship for a frozen ATPL
Hi All
Does anyone out there know if the The J N Somers Scholarship for a frozen ATPL is solely for fixed wing? or do they consider Rotary aswell?
Thanks in advance.

Planks only.
The equivalent cost for a 'frozen' ATPL(H) would probably be at least double the cost of a 'frozen' ATPL(A). (For example, the cost of the IR(H) alone is nearly the same as the whole 'frozen' ATPL(A)!)
