DLR

Hello Studi,

u r absolutely right 2 say that there is nothing to lose if u get
sponsored.I did not go 4 the DLR test cauz got 2 friends flying 4 LH and they r not so happy there at all.
LH was way 2 expensive @ the time I got the invitation 4 DLR test.Have 2 say that this was 3 years ago and now with JAA they had to lower the price 4 the training ,even that they do NOT recognize JAA here.
Was thinking of going through the selection 4 sponsorship 4 weeks ago but an EX flight instructor did not recomend it @ this time.
I mean I got my british frozen ATPL now so I dont care too much,
but I really wish u all the luck to get through.I mean it honestly!

I had a hard time with german LBA to convert my license.Took them the blink of an eye of 8.5 month to tell me what I have to do.lucky me that I did not have a job.

Guess some pilots in UK complaining about CAA there, do not know how lucky they are to get some information on the phone .hard to believe but it is true.

If u need some more info ,let me know.
take care my friend,andi
