I've been speaking with Bristol Ground School about making the switch to them after leaving the ATPL full-time ground school.

It's not 100% clear on the future of ATPL exams taken in the UK and I have a few questions.

I've shared the process and cost of changing from full-time to BGS ATPL training courses which is more expensive than you may think.
