LucyHP, do you know whether you can pass a Class 1 medical (either JAA or FAA?) if you have eyesight problems? Before you embark on any professional training, I would recommend you do the medical first otherwise you could waste a fair amount money.
I've not heard of UK Flight Training as a JAA/FAA school; as far as I am aware, Bristow's are the only JAA school in the US. Some school advertise themselves as "JAA compliant" and that ain't quite the same thing. Please just be careful to read the small print.
Cheers
