Smile An official response...

I will try and contribute to as many points as I can.

EMAILS - Please be assured that we always reply to the emails that we receive, irrespective of content, length of email, origin etc. Some of the replies are straight forward, some we have to contact the Hellenic and other country Authorities before we can give a responsible answer. Unfortunately despite the fact that we all work with common JAA rules, certain authorities like to be consulted first when it comes to conversions, renewals etc. So sometimes you have to be patient.

ACCOMMODATION. The training packages include a certain number of calendar days of ‘shared’ accommodation. Shared means that you have your own bedroom but you share kitchen, bathroom and living room areas. We use new clean apartments and the maximum number of bedrooms so far is two. We also use a number of holiday type apartments with or without a separate bedroom, a small kitchen and living area. These are used for “single” accommodation and there is a €7 supplement per day. If you want to bring a family we can find something bigger and let you know the cost.

NUMBER OF DAYS - Regarding the days we include. The number of days does not mean that the course finishes in these days. Nobody in aviation can guarantee you when you will finish training as there are too many variables including the weather, your own progress and commitment etc. We have included an average number of days per training module based on previous experience. If it takes less there is no refund, if it takes longer you pay extra per day. The price for the extra accommodation is always on the appropriate training page. You can even find your own accommodation once you are here and we will deduct an amount from the package price. The reason we have included accommodation is so that people can concentrate on their training, plus they do not have to worry about finding some as soon as they arrive.

Change of State of Issue - Regarding JAA licenses you can change the State of Issue at any time by completing a JAA form.

Keep posting and take care.
