Thanks for the replies.
WWW: The CommAir / Atlantic Fight Training course in US is JAA and I am assured that visas can be arranged for the training.
PWP: The breakdown I have of prices compare as follows:
1. Oxford ab initio integrated APTL = £63,500 inc VAT
2. CommAir equivalent full time modular APTL = US$47,100 i.e. about £32k
The MCC and IR bit is in UK (at Coventry presumably).
Bear in mind also that cost of living and sun tan opportunities are better in Florida than Oxfordshire.
Quite a difference eh? I could do US and still have £ left over to buy my own plane and start my own airline (now there's an idea).
So is the good name of Oxford really that good? i.e. £30k worth of good?
I hear what you're saying about ME hours - wise words. So is it stating the obvious to say that good hours = better job prospects?
Enough for now. I'm off to investigate EFT.
d.a.l.
