Stay in england , Ouch.. .SOME British flying schools are second to none, There instructors are profesional instructors as opposed to hour builders as in the states, But the money you save in the states not to mention time will mean you go home from a nice holiday having flown yourself around for lunch in various remote locations that them on the ground dont have time to get there. Then you come home with a piece of paper, which after a 3-6 hours local flying will transform into a perfectly good license that gets you flying in the smog of GB, at the end of it you have saved enogh money by doing it in the States to pay for for you first few (or quite a few) flights. British clubs are Great to learn to fly with, But there is a good reason so many people choose the states.
