is it really cheaper in the U.S?

you have to pay rent above your U.K mortgage, Flight, Insurance, Briefing costs
Fight and I mean fight for Aircraft avaliability.

Loss of Any salary that could be earned in the U.K whilst training
part time or full time

The obvious tax incentive which means that after your CPL you can offset all the costs to becoming an instructor against future earnings

And the fact that the requirements to be an instructor in the U.K have just been reduced to 250 for entry onto the course makes a difference

Also I heard a rumour that the insurance requirement to teach on the R22 (the primary training aircraft still in the US) has been increased to 300 hours

Why go abroad and come back a stranger in the industry?????
