I spoke about this very subject the other day with the chief Instructor at Professional...He feels that a candidate can get through(flying everyday)in about 45 days...What holds things up initially is the student medical...There are some qualified(Transport Canada )Dr's in the UK..Getting this out of the way early would help.....Try Canadian Aviation Regulations for a list of Doctors available..
Cheers...
