After flying a Bravo for about 4 years 2IC, the boss very kindly decided to make an honest man out of me!

FSI at Wichita is indeed very very good. I have also heard good reports sbout simuflite. I cant help but think that FSI's close connection with the factory not only in terms of geography but also the factory engineering input on the groundschool has a very positive effect on the course.

I've looked at some figures and I think that the course cost about 14k$. Expect about £1200 in expenses at the Hilton and about £600 for an airfare (Cattle).

I did a JAA/FAA Checkride combined

Its worth doing your FAA ATP ground exam before you go, if you meet the other criteria you will get an FAA ATP there and then.

You will need "differences training in" JAA land between the I / II and the Bravo.

Please confirm all this before you go anywhere i have this annoying habit of talking absolute b@ll@cks on occasion.

Enjoy the course the Bravo is really good fun!
