Hello guys, I’m currently a 17 year old Filipino (does my nationality matter in flight schools) who lives and I’m doing my GCSEs. I of course want to be a pilot. I was looking around at the options here for Flight schools.
I’ve looked at Alpha Aviation Academy in Sharjah (AED 590k). They have an “Alpha MPL Cadet Pilot Programme”, which I think passes you on to Air Arabia to get 1500 hours on their A320.
The other place I’ve looked at is Emirates Aviation University (AED 595k). They have a “EASA Approved ATPL, AB-INTIO Pilot Training”, which also comes with a degree in Air Transport Management (I don’t think AAA does), but I don’t think they’ll pass you on to any airline.
Is any of these worth it? Or should I look into other flight schools maybe outside of the UAE? I’ve heard about the Alpha Aviation Academy in Philippines and I think there’s a Kansas State University Pilot Training Programme too.
Thank you
