ATPL GS recognition between UK and Germany
Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if someone had an experience of doing ATPL GS as Distance learning in UK schools and then doing the actual flying school and practical tests in Germany.
I've got my PPL in Germany and had done all the GS tests successfully in German (as that was the only option). However, the study was an uphill struggle, as I'm not a native speaker there. Now comes the time to progress to ATPL and I find myself in a conundrum:
All the schools I've asked over here would only provide theory GS in German, while the actual examinations are to be in English. I find it funny having to struggle through German only to revert back to English for the exams.
Trouble is - flight schools in Germany seem to be notorious for not recognizing other's training, not even other schools within the country.
Any thoughts/links will be greatly appreciated!
