Thumbs up EFT USA Update

As promised my final update in regard to my stay at EFT in Florida.

It has now been two weeks ago that I got back home and I’m still enjoying, every day, of the fact that I’m now in the possession of a JAA PPL licence, plus night rating.
Finally the mission is accomplished, enabling me to attend to the next step, which is the ATPL Course.

In retrospective I can state that my time at EFT has been great. Almost two months of flying and studying. All the teachers are willing to help you, but a special thanks to Claus who has trained me well this past few weeks.
In my previous update I have stated that I’m positive in regard to the school and now even more as I have seen the new complex were they are moving too. This will definitely give the last boost they needed in regard to the space of the briefing rooms, teaching classrooms, etc……… I assume they will have an update about it on their own home page. Even the housing is now part of the school, which I think is great. Two Danish colleagues were already living there. I even saw a swimming pool, tennis court and beach volley ball yard, enabling the students to stay in shape.

It might surprise you that I’m again all positive about the school, but as I already have stated before, things luckily can change for the better. Still, the funny thing is that if there is a negative point you will see a lot members bashing around based only on what they have heard and if there is positive comment then the person in question must have been bribed by the school. Please, let me be clear that this is again my objective opinion and no one has influenced me to say anything about them. Of course there have been minor bleeps, but not different then the ones you will encounter in your daily life. Just attend them with the person in charge and things will be corrected of taken care off.

Looking forward to go back for my CPL, ones I have passed all ATPL exams. A warm greeting to everybody at EFT from the Dutchy………
