Hi all,
Just wondering if someone out there could help with some advice. Im just finished college where i was doing Business Studies and have no interest in the world in pursuing a career in it. My only love has always been flying. The parents thought this might grow out of me and id return to the family business but it has only grown stronger. Im 24 now and am thinking about going to one of the schools in the US to finish the PPL and also do the FATPL. I have just read some of the links there about 1 or 2 of the schools i was looking at and got a fright. They were getting a fierce slating. Could some1 please recommend a reasonably priced school with good instructors. Also when you get as far as the ATPL and you fairly assured of employment.

All answers are welcome.
Thanks.

I'm also going to the US to do my ppl and then complete my fATPL. When you thinking of going ? - Lot's of people here say that orlando flight training centre is pretty good.. thats in my thread also..

Recommendations are to study for exams and take them here in UK.
