Going to Florida - advise please
First of all I am new to the PPRUNE but I am getting hooked.
I am going to Florida to learn to fly. Now I know all about supporting local flying schools and I will - when I get back. But if I dont go away and do this then I will never do it.
Anyway so there are a lot of people looking on the site - in a similar position to me. I am going to start my ground school studies next week with the Oxford Discs so that I can get them out the way.
I am thinking of heading out to Florida at the End of April for 4 weeks.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
I am wondering from those who know with all the different flying schools it would seem - Avoid Ormond like the plague...
So there is Orlando, Naples and EFT. All seem good, does anyone know which is really best or - are they all good so it doesnt really matter.
I am going for the JAA PPL. I want to fly, I always have. If anyone is thinking of going out around the same time please feel free to drop me a line.
All advice on how long ground school will take, should I book 1-2-1 lessons, how do I go about booking exams... all advice appreciated although I will continue to read books and trawl through the forums.
Ta!
