things to do before setting out to get a ppl

[me_chambers]

ok i want to go and do my ppl in the states. I've looked at the various schools in the USA.

Can someone let me know of the things i need to do before i go

i am aware i need to get the neccessary medicals, visas and study the neccessary material. Is there anything else i need to do before i embark on this challenge
