Fuji Abound

I teach the I/R both approved & Non Approved.

I believe that LGU can provide you with the I/R element of the JAA theoretical training.

As for how long it takes, it's a little like the preverbial peice of string.

Remember, you will have to have 600 hours prior to starting the flight training, in my experience the type of hours that you have aquired will make a difference in the speed at which you progress ie. ex military/Instructor/just flying off hours for the hell of it in a 152 somewhere.

You will have to pass a 170A flight test prior to your CAAFU test. No instructor worth his salt will put you forward for your 170A if you are not ready for it.

Do you have an IMC rating? It's not a requirement, but if you do at least you can build some of your hours flying IFR (in uncontrolled airspace).

Use your hours building time wisely!!

Good luck!
