180 days has always been the time limit for training to commence from the date of TSA approval and then you have 12 months to actually complete the training..
That is true. However i have not got final approval. The fingerprinting has to be done within 90 days of me
sending in my documents to the TSA.
And yes i first saw it on the flight schools website. However they and the TSA have confirmed (multiple times) this rule to be true via email. so sorry mate, no link. Part of the reason i was on here looking for answers is because the TSA havent mentioned the '90 day rule' on their website, anywhere. But believe me, i would much rather stroll down to the sheriff and part with $20 instead of €200...
Anyway, looks like im off to Farnborough. Interesting chat though.
Cheers lads
