Sorry folks,but why,actually are you discussing things like that?I was an instructor in the US,and I had to check out german PPLs,that wanted to fly there-,I refused to sign them off,because the skills they showed me were SO INCREDIBLY BAD,no idea about stall/spin awareness,etc.
OK,but still,I dont think that all students from germany are bad,not at all.It is just that I know the training environment in the US and in Germany,and It seems to me,the US system is more practical oriented.
On the other hand,I had students coming over from Florida to our school(California),and their skills were INCREDIBLY bad...
So,there are good schools out there,and there are bad ones.Because students from europe want to train for the least money,they go to the worst schools,and,get the worst training.
How can they expect to get good training for very little money(like PPL for 2200USD..)
BTW sorry about my English,but its not my mother tongue.
