Hope that you all will bare with me, I'm completely new in this game!
After doing a ton of research I have become more confused then clear on my situation. So I hope you guys can help me out.
I'm looking for a school in California that can take me from having no licenses to getting the JAA/EASA CPL. So first of is there any CAA approved schools in California that can do so? If yes a list and recommendation is very much wanted. Schools I have found that I think do so are
JAA PPL USA UK Flight Training USA,California,Florida specialising in JAA CAA PPL,Helicopter training,JAA ATPL Ground School,IMC,Night,Multi,FAA,DGCA-Indian Pilot Training,UK RT Radio licence, JAA ATPL,Professional Pilot Program,PTIP and
International Flight Training Schools in San Diego | FlyAAA
And then I wanted to hear of it was still possible to obtain a J-1 visa and get a instructor job to gain hours?
If there is a smarter solution, like taking the FAA instead and then do a conversion or something then please let me know. Any info will be gratefully received!
