Hi, i've been reading this forum for a long time now. I know most, if not all of you are CPL and above holders, but i hope you'll have some insight to my question.
I'm planing on going to the USA during the summer and getting my PPL, I'm currently enrolled in an engineering program in India, and i get a 2.5 month vacation for summer.
The only doubt i have is with the difficulty of getting validation of my FAA license in India to maintain my recency and gain a few hours. I'f anyone can share their experience, i'd surely appreciate it.
Also if anyone in India, knows any good flying schools near Surat, which offers an executive PPL program which i can complete during weekends while i study, that would be even better!
