I did some hours building at OFT a few years ago. It's an OK place but not that much to do in Kissimmee without a car.

You are absolutely right 2 weeks is NOT ENOUGH time to complete a PPL properly. People do it though but it can't be much fun. Remember when you return to the UK most clubs will get you to do quite a few hours with them before they allow you to go solo in one of their aircraft. From my experience the majority of these 2 week PPL graduates are barely average at general handling, poor at navigation and weak on the theory side.

Always remember a PPL is a licence to learn and NOTHING more!
