g'day
I read about "foster aviation" near j'burg.
is this a good choice to get a caravan rating?
or is there (in africa) an other possibility?
thanks for your kind replay

Foster Aviation at Lanseria are a reputable company. From my experience good to deal with.
There may be others in SA, but unlikely to be offering a van rating for less.
Be aware though that unless you have a South African license, the 208 rating might not be able to put onto your license. You might want to check that if you have a JAA license.

After following the advice of the above, I stand corrected. It appears that it may be possible to get the rating cheaper elsewhere.

Heard Blue Chip do it for about R8.5k. Best phone them as I believe it may be a group rate and you need to book to get onto a course with the othert blokes/ettes.
Also understand Solenta can arrange one for around R15k which sounds a little steep.
