CPL,ME,IR training in Florida

Hi all,

I am considering doing my CPL, ME and IR (JAA) in Florida to keep the costs down. Lets say for instance that the school in Florida is of a very good standard, what is the general view of training in the USA?
For example most people bring up the fact that the radio procedures are different and the weather is almost always great so you dont get the experience that you would in the uk.

I have done my PPL in the uk and i am preparing to start my ATPL ground school with AFT in Coventry.

I am obviously considering training in Florida to save money on training costs but what i am afraid of is the airlines in the UK frowning at the fact that i have trained in the US rather than the UK for some reason.

Any opinions on doing my CPL,ME and IR in the US would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Dave
