Learning to fly in the US of A - FAA PPL(H)
As the title suggests, I am thinking of going to the USA to get an FAA PPL(H).
I am very interested in any advice or pointers of the following:-
1. Schools, which are the good ones?
2. Where? Florida? California? I am intending to go in Oct 2006 if that makes any difference.
3. Visas, what do I need?
4. TSA, what's that all about?
5. Is there any difference in the standard of pilot from FAA to JAA? (don't shoot me please!)
6. What can I fly in the UK on an FAA PPL(H)?
7. How do I convert to a JAA licence from an FAA one?
8. What's the life like outside of learning to fly?
9.
Sorry for all the questions, but this seems the best resource on the net!
Thanks in advance...
