43 Air School - SA (Merged)

[birdlady]

Dobo,

The course your talking about is indeed up and running but at a price of 95 000 euros if Im not mistaken. (this is without a type rating) Ridiculous rip off but I suppose that is the price you have to pay for a JAA licence with POSSIBLE employement at city jet once the course is completed. 43 does have a good rep but you can get a school just as good (if not better) and at a much cheaper price. As with any school you will find critics but I do beleive that in this case its not worth the money. It really depends on the kind of person you are and whether your the type who has to be spoon fed or are willing to take it upon yourself and work your bo**ox off on your own initative. Personally, I can see this scheme ending in tears but then I've been living in Africa too long and may be a little cynical. Do not get me wrong, the training here is first class but like anywhere you do get your bad eggs.

You might find this site interesting as you will find a good deal of info on all your queries. Shameless plug but what the hell............... www.avcom.co.za
