Hi WWW,

I know that US skies are completely different to the UK skies and I'm expecting to put a fair few hours in when I get back learning the differences. Price is a consideration for me, I'll make no bones about it. The extra money saved by doing it in the US will allow me to buy some extra tuition in the UK to bring me up to speed. It will give me more hours and cost me the same as a PPL here.

If you still taught 3 week £3000 UK PPLs I would be first to sign up. But the flying clubs in my area, Redhill, Shoreham, perhaps Biggin Hill are just very expensive. I am aware that the transition to the UK is going to be turbulent but I'm determined not to be a crap pilot and will do all I can to stop it from happening.
