I would have loved to do my PPL here but i am impatient and wanted to do it quickly without the hassle of waiting for acceptable weather!
America was right for me at the time and i do not regret choosing to go there to do my training. The £2k i saved can now be invested into building hours before i embark on the ATPL/CPL.
I had fun. I had some good experiences. I passed my skills test and i met some great people. As far as im concerned - Mission accomplished!
