hey guys,
check out my post in the thread "where can I work now"
Check out the JAA web site as well, none of UK CAA schools are there.
If you do your training outside UK don't expect your licence to be recognised in all JAA countries. You'll basically have a JAR licence for the UK but an old CAP509 for the rest of europe.
If you only expect to work in the UK then fine. But bare in mind that outside training won't give you a 100% JAR FCL licence, it won't be valid in most northern european countries.
cheers.
