Hi friends, I'm an spanish pilot holding a JAA CPL with 850 hrs. TT.
I got my ATPL theory in 2005 but unfortunely, since I did not have the means to pay an IFR rating before 2008 my ATPL expired and I have to do it again in order to get the IFR. :ugh:
Start studying again doesn't certainly makes me happy.... I have to do it though.. At least it will help me to refresh my knowledge :}.
I have to enlist in an school again and wait six months until I can do the 14 tests again. But what it really bothers me is that in Spain you have to wait 4 months between examinations in case you fail one or more test.
I understand that in Portugal the government is much more helpful in this matters.
I read in a newspaper that ATPL exams take place every month.
Is that information true? In that case i would consider move there for a few months and complete my training in Portugal.
Thank you in advanced.
