I am very strongly looking at going to this academy in New Zealand as it is alot more cheaper and sounds like a respectful establishment. I have spoken to the senior flight instructor a chap called Jay and seems like a great guy. I am thinking of visiting Chritstchurch very soon with my family and see how the living environment is like out there. The only downside to this is it is thousands of miles away from home here in the UK. If you want to communicate privately I will give you my email address and maybe we could start together as I am looking out for a fellow Brit.
