Seagull, thanks for the info. Out of curiousity, what is it about the Norwegian CAA that put you off?
And another question, looks like I'll be going the same route of doing my JAA-PPL in the States, however, I would like to clock up some flying hours before I go, and I'll be in Norway next month. Could you advise me how to go about getting some flying hours before doing my theory exams?
And btw, have you come across
these guys' website? Appears like you do your whole PPL in English. I am going to phone them now and ask in what language are the exams. Will keep posted.
