JAA CLP/IR or FAA CPL
I am a JAA PPL holder with Night and about 90 hours TT.
I am deciding which is the best route to go to CPL.
My Sweedish instructor in the USA told me of his route of doing the FAA J-1 visa where he instructs for 2 years to get around 1,500 hours TT with the FAA CPL/IR/CFI, he then intends to come to europe and do the JAA ATPLs and change the licences, he said it will cost about the same as doing the JAA CPL/IR in Europe, but he will have the 1,500 hours
Or you could do the JAR CPL/IR for X amount here and then try to find employment with the 150 or so hours>
I know the USA way is different and some would be against it, but for the same sort of money I could have 1500 hours of time aswell and a FAA licence, perhapes i just want to live in the sun for 2 years.
Any Ideas, comments or suggestions MUCH appreciated
