Hello everyone,
one of my first few posts here .. information here is invaluable thx to you lot.
Now some more info ..
I've been waiting a while to start off my training. I've juggled my decisions from various places in Europe to the US and now to Australia.
I've lived before in Australia and i like the place a lot so I'd prefer to go back there.
I find that most of the training provided there is not as professional as in US or Europe. Most of the schools go as far as a CPL and ME. No advanced courses like CRM/LOFT/Jet etc. (would anyone recommend doing LOFT and CRM courses early on?)
I've planned to go with the CPL+MECIR route and some extra ME hours and then start off with a small Freight/charter company. And most I've found prefer atleast CPL with MECIR and atleast around 300TT.
I've researched almost every school withing Australia and New Zealand. I've come up with many with my requirements but I don't know which to choose. So anyone trained in australia have any good experiences and at any particular flight school?
Also would anyone recommend a better route or have any advice for the route I'm taking (maybe it not a good one or maybe it is).
Unfortunately I'm very tight on a budget .. so I've planned the bove for almost the MAX I can afford to spend on training for now. Anywhere in Australia I can get a B1900 rating? Preferably within the flight training school.
Cheers
