PPL CPL
Good afternoon, gentlemen and ladies. I am from Serbia, and I was considering going to South Africa to obtain my PPL and CPL.
As I was touring Antigua & Barbuda, a helicopter pilot advised me that it would be best to obtain your license in the nation where you intend to fly.
I would like to know if it makes sense to complete the courses in South Africa and then complete the conversion in, say, the United States for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and a European country for the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)?
Is it better to start somewhere or is it more costly to convert after the courses?
