I was wondering if anyone could give links to flight schools which offer aircraft rental for hour building in Spain. I've been trying to google them but I managed to find only one in Jerez (fly-in Spain). Perhaps most of them only have websites in Spanish and that's why I can't find anything else?

I am planning to go to Spain for over a week in October and ideally I would like to compare more offers before signing up, especially because even when buying a block of 50hrs with 'fly-in Spain' does not work much cheaper than in the UK - after taking into account flight tickets, accommodation etc.

I would really appreciate your help, Portugal would be an option too :)

Airgus thanks for your help! I have already signed up with 'fly-in-Spain' and calculating accommodation, etc into that hour building it will probably work out the same per hour as in the UK (if not slightly more)but weather is pretty much guaranteed, new airspace and a little getaway at the same time so overall you get more for your money than in the UK. I hope it's a good decision :)

did you add in the cost of landings at Fly in Spain ? - not included at Jerez when I was there? circuits get expensive...

Yes, I have. 22EUR/landing but hopefully it will only be once a day on the return from the trip.

I would suggest doing your hour building around the area where you plan to do your CPL.

Although i ve been to America for 3 times before, my visa application was rejected 2 years ago so United States may be out of option but I would love to go there and fly someday.Which place do you recommend maybe I can try to get a visa again.

Ah, unlucky. For hour building you don’t need a visa, but you do need to get into the country.. Flyingacademy.com is amongst the cheapest.
