JAA Instrument Rating in US
Hi -
I recently returned from the US with a FAA PPL (somehow!). At the moment I'm working on building the required 50hrs PIC xCountry for the IR requirements. If all goes well, I hope to return to the US again this summer and get a instrument rating. Unfortunatly, unlike the FAA PPL, a FAA IR can't be used in Europe, therefore, a JAA licence is a must.
I trained at NAC, a wonderful flight school (the best I've expeiranced - trust me, they're better at flight training than replying to email!). I have the option of returning, getting a FAA IR and then converting or choosing another school and going direct for a JAA IR. Which would be the best option? NAC are doing the IR for about $3,500 while JAA offers in the UK are about $14,000 for IR??
Any advice would be apperciated!
Best Regards
