Is this legal
Hello
first of all i know this forum is for trained pilot students but would love to ask opinion from u guys who have been there n' might have some idea about my dilemma
i want to get JAR license but can not afford it...so think about doing FAA n' convert it later
then i got an offer from my relative who's a captain in florida...he said due to my financial situation which is not good at all he'll help me out by putting me in his friend's school to get PPL....then will ask his pilot friends to let me fly w/them when they go on a flight to gain hours for CPL ( i guess it'll b courrier flight or sth)....after that will fly for his courrier company to get 1500 hrs for ATPL
he said by doing it this way i'll need only 15000 $...which leaves me enough saving in the bank for the JAR conversion ( 20000 $ i heard)
am now 27 so time's running up for starting....would really appreciate any comment on this
regards
