Yes if you are going for a longer stint then yes the states is going to work out cheaper.
But as the first listings says i think he has a family to think of and not all of us want to leave our kids etc for that long if there is a way around it.
I will be going to the USA to do some hour building as like you say the solo/rental rate is very low.
But just to do the initial PPL it does not work out that much cheaper, plus as i said earlier no trading standards should you run into a cowboy or 2.
I realise not all schools are bad, but as dozens of people have found it is frustrating if you have picked a bum one.
No argument to get drawn into simply expressing my views as asked by the instigator of this post.
Happy Landings to you all.
