Hello everybody,
I hesitate doing my training in UK (especially because of the hight cost) I am from France, the weather is great here and I do not have any accomodation (I live with my GF near a FTO).
If I go in UK i will have to pay extra things...
Well I hesitate because as you know english is The language and I thought I would improve it during flights.
As the same time I am a little be worried that it will slow down my course (I am not fluent... and I will have to be able to understand my instructor and all trafic control).
my questions :
1) The course for a CPL/IR last about 70 hours (IR then CPL). during around 15 weeks. If I calculate, I guess you fly maybe 2 or 3 hours every day, don't you?
So what are you doing the rest of your day ?? stay in your room ?
well i ask you that because, if it was my case, I wouldn't improve my english very well in fact. Ok we can go out, meet people etc... but it is not sure.
2) about the loan, I have a question for students who did their course in another country, i know few of you went in Spain (looking for the sun lol).
Did you loan In UK and spent in Spain ? do the bank charge you every time ? How id you pay (credit card ?)
by the way, if someone can explain me the difference in UK between "debit cardd" dans "credit card" please... In France, I have a Mastercard, we call it "credit card".
3) the weather in UK during october, november, december, is it very bad for a CPL ??? does it affect the cost very much ?
thank you very much!
