The training choice is tough!!!
Hi all,
I am 31yrs old and looking at flying for a career, hopefully corporate. I'm having a hard time deciding between the following;
Heading off to the U.S and study full time possibly at PEA, JET University or Epic.
Staying in AUS and completing a diploma course possibly Australian Wings Academy, ANAC or GFS. I've emailed a few places, and received replies from JET U and AWA.
From Jet U;
The price for the new part 141 based on 156 hrs –( Pvt./IFR/CPL/M/E ) is $38,000
From AWA;
Basic Diploma Fee AUD$64,756
Fuel Surcharge due to high oil prices AUD$ 2,230
Garmin 1000 glass cockpit option for advanced training AUD$ 4,470ATPL frozen (optional) AUD$3,900
Obviously, I'd have to add housing/living expenses to the above
If anyone has advice for me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Steve
