Thumbs up DAE Flight Academy

I don't really think it's all that bad to be honest - the most reputed companies in the UK cost around 130,000+ USD, this figure is even higher if you look at FTO based France, Germany, Sweden etc.

For comparison's sake, for the extra 20k you get to train on sophisticated, technologically advanced aircraft (SR22 and the Eclipse EA500 Jet) PLUS you walk away with not one but DUAL type rating on the EA500 and a jet transport aircraft of your choosing which will either be 73 or 320 variants if I'm not mistaken. This is all offered under one roof. Sounds pretty impressive if you ask me.

The cost of living in the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah where the school is based will be much cheaper than anywhere else in Europe and rentals are no where as extorsionate as they are in Dubai.
