The scope course was full of practical/useful info - if a bit technologically dated (most of the hands on scope were pretty old), with hands on sessions covering disassembly/basic repairs (channel blocks, BSR replacements, angulation adjustments etc) which constitute the vast majority of simple problems which can be resolved locally.
Unfortunately, unless you can source the parts to do this work, it is difficult to put it into practice - even though pots of money can be saved + scopes have a greater up time. (this does not consider the liability 'risks' )
Summary: Great educational course, but expensive if you cannot apply what you learned. (+ the guinness tastes a lot better!)
