I couldn't find any formal statement with regards to this, apart from the requirement to sit all 14 exams within the same state. Would it be possible?
PilotLZ,
I am wondering if you ended up taking the ATPL exams in Bulgaria. If so, would you recommend it. Did you come across with any administrative difficulties?
I am also considering taking the exams in Bulgaria since it is closer to my home country and i am trying to get in touch with people who has done so before.
Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
