Greetings to all!!!
Just joined this community,after carefully observing the posts for a while.
My name is John,and first of all I would like to say "Fantastic Job!!!" to the creators of this Forum.
I live in Athens,Greece and my time to join all the fine pilots and share the clouds has come (although postponed for many times due to some family difficulties)
Only have a few questions,which can only be answered based on opinions (since all my other Qs where answered through this forum)
Don't really know if I want to work in the states,cause my heart always belonged to our national carrier here in Greece (I'll try not to say any names)
I have a couple of schools in mind to start my training,and I would like to ask you if you think that there might be another school in the states/canada that may match their program-money-proffessionalism (and degree options JAA/FAA)
1.FlightSafety
2.Phoenix East
I know that I'll only get a FAA degree and that I'll have to convert to JAA,but could someone please (finally) clarify the whole process of conversion?
Is there a school in the US that offers JAA degrees?
How about Canada?Does anyone know of any schools in Montreal?
How long does it take (taking in concideration that I pass everything with my first try,and no delays in exams and flights occur) in order to go from 0 to actually start going to intreviews?
INFO:
1.I'm almost 26,and I'm worried that my time will be almost up.
2.I'm looking to spend around 45000euros / 60000$ (including my housing)
If this is a huge e-mail,and someone knows a website where I can find all these answers, then please don't hesitate to send it :)
Thank you all so much for your time
Hope I wasn't a pain
Best Regards and Greetings from sunny (and extremely hot) Greece :8
