How long??
Am I missing something here.???
Went to the states to a very reputible flight school and did my JAA PPL (A) + Night Rating in four weeks (First week just doing writtens). Lost 1.5 days due to bad weather and got a nice tan thrown in to the bargain.
Also at a fraction of the cost than over here. Like you guys I started doing mine over here last summer and completed 8 hrs before getting completely racked off with the whole weather thing!!
