I know you were only asking for advice on flight schools, but unfortunately in the current climate you will have to expect some replies like that above and you would do well to heed them. These are people with experience of the industry and they can see what's happening from within. Are you really sure of your claims of jobs out there in Europe?
Do you really think that if you start your training now that there will be a job out there for you in a year or two?
Please please do not fall for any sales talk by any FTO at the moment. There are experience pilots out there with thousands of hours now looking for jobs who are now willing to up sticks and go where the work is and it will take probably a 3 years to get rid of this backlog. Only then will you have a look in. You are only 28 and still have time on your hands, don't blow your training money now by wrong timing. It's not your duty to keep an FTO in business.
In regard to which FTO, get your ppl first, build you hours up, night rating and then Qualifying cross country. That's plenty to be getting on with. Spend at least two years doing this putting yourself under no pressure.
In 2011 go to either EFT, Stapleford or Oxford to complete your training. Forget the rest. You can even do the ground studies separate.
Geez this is not rocket science just common sense with a little research.
Will probably get lambasted recommending FTO's, it's only my opinion.
Don't blow it all by being impatient, the worst is yet to come and we are all going to have to sit tight and watch what happens.
