Hi,
I did check a few Canadian flight schools and the rates are much lower with the exchange rate. Looking at around $7800CAD for the bare minimum.
However, as Bose-X mentioned it looks like I would have to start from scrarch to convert unless I acquired 100+ hours. I looked at the cost of doing this, but unless I'm going for a CPL or have the time and funds to add additional ratings it's not going to work out cheaper.
That's not a bad call regarding shareholding. I'll have to see what options I have.
Otherwise, looks like I'm back to searching for a decent European school as the one local to me seem to have an odd approach that'll have be waiting until next year before I get my PPL.
Any recommendations? Lol.
Thanks,
Antony
