Hi sunnygee,

I have completed my training at a large flying school in Sydney.

Despite previous comments, there ARE schools in Australia that offer JAA training, British Aerospace in Adelaide is one of them, they also hold the cadet contract for British Airways.

I guess it all depends how much money you want to spend and what sort of employment you are seeking, remember you only need to get a JAA license to work for a EU airline, if you wanted to work for a Pacific, Asian or American airline you don't need the JAA conversion.

You can walk into major airlines like Qantas, Air New Zealand, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines & JAL with less then 1000 TT and Aussie Frozen ATPL/MECIR.

If you want any info re Sydney schools feel free to e-mail me.

Best of luck!
