Whirlygig, Moosp, Hillerbee thanks for your help, it's great from my position to feel being taken seriously by experienced people.
I don't even tell my friends, collegues even family about my ambition anymore, I've been laughed at too often, either by my students friends when studying Economics at university or by my fellow coworkers working as a cashier in a drugstore. It does not even bother me, they don't know...
As for the JAA, I don't even think of it, it is financially out of reach, so my plan is to stay for a year in the states to get from PPLfixed wing to CFI heli, then if possible and me being good enough, to work as an instructor at the same school for another 12 months. JAA conversion are very distant in the future, I know about the regulations and cost involved that's all I can say.
Next step will be 5 hrs in an aeroclub in a small airplane thanks of a grant, and continue working full time and saving for going to the US early 07.
