I'm still not convinced it really is that much cheaper if all you are after is a JAA PPL, Hey prove me wrong!!
Scameron77 your in a lucky position fella where you have moved lock stock over to the States, I'm not so lucky! I would have to keep flying over to complete a course/licence and then fly back which adds up. Plus I know I would have to pay for food and drink regardless of where I am but I also have to pay a mortgage so adding accommodation on top dosn't help!!
The thing that puts me off about doing my PPL in the states and in particular Florida is that all the UK schools don't seem to rate the training. Do you think I'd be better off if I went one of the schools in LA or even Canada??
