Hi guys,
Apologies if this has already been discussed, but am finding many flying schools changing the rules, so thought I'd post on here for latest info...
Wanting to get into an airline flying an Airbus... :cool:
I've a JAR PPL (A) with approx 120hrs total time and approx 50hrs P1. I want to get a ATPL/CPL/MEIR and then go for a MCC and JOC.
I realise I'm currently 'under' hours, so have been considering a two week holiday in Florida for some hour building (approx 40hrs) and a Night Rating.
1. Anyone recommend a good school or another location/country please?
2. Also, can anyone recommend a country/flying school where I can get JAR ATPL training full-time and...do a JAR CPL/MEIR? Cost of course are always best kept to a minimum. :ok:
I have so far approached a school in New Zealand, to discover they don't do JAR and the conversion cost - approx £17k :eek:
I've also considered doing distant learning in the UK and staying with my current job, but...will take so much longer and besides, am normally brain-dead after work, so self-study would be a nightmare for me.
Am hoping to find a single location where I can do the whole works! Now that would be cool.
