Good luck with the rest of your exams Simon.

I completed all of mine (except the RT) and then went out to Florida on a 3 week, 45 hour flying package. Result - wish I hadn't gone. Did 16 hours in 16 days due to lack of aircraft, lack of instructors and too many students. Lost lots of money and didn't think I would be able to carry on in the UK. Would have been cheaper in the UK and might have had better flying weather! Anyone who says Florida has perfect weather is wrong -we had a hurricane, rain and severe turbulence. Maybe we were just unlucky.

It hasn't put me off learning and I am pleased to find out that I have 2 years from now in which to complete the flying part.

What are your plans?

Regards

Paul
