great debate....

oh dear.....here we go again...the classic debate as to whether to do your training in america or in the UK...

the obvious choice would be the states because of the reduced cost at which you can learn to fly at, and of course lets not forget the sunny weather..that always helps to get the through the course nice and swiftly....however......upon return to the UK, if you have never flown in the uk, get use to the airspace and the restrictions that apply and also learn how to read and decipher our lovely maps (of which the new ones just came out).....i am of course assuming that u have done everything out there in america, test and all....

my choice though would be to stick with the Uk all the way..it may be more expensive, and not as many sunny days, but you get use to the airspace and laws and RT and general flying....i would only use america to build my hours....and show the slack americans how real pilots fly..
