EASA PPL USA

[Pilot2be]

Hi Guys,

I have done a fair bit of research on the internet but found this whole EASA conversion thing very confusing...

Does anyone have a list of good FTOs in the US that offer the EASA PPL, I wouldn't want to waste money and time obtaining one that isn't EASA recognised and having to pay extra to do a conversion...

The reasons that I would like to study in the US is that the good good weather and course fees is at a considerable advantage to my home country...

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pilot4eva

Just wanted to know is that recommendation coming from personal experience at the flying school?

I trained at a school in orlando which is closed now!naples air center has lost its approval.The school in california has very bad reviews.The reason I'm recommending EFT is because I have personally visited them during my hour building.Aircraft are quite good and lots of instructors so can get done very quickly.If I had to do my training all over again I would definitely go with them.
Hope this helps.

Sounds like this might be out of date slightly as Naples Air Center is still on there but might be of use:

I did my at American Aviation, CA in 2013, not got a bad word to say about them.
