Good morning all,
Is there any one who can help me find a flight school that are able to train me. I was hoping to do my training at Phoenix East Aviation academy as I believe that the could supply a course that would have been most suitable to my needs. They have told me that they are not able to train me as they are an accredited school and as I have no High-school qualifications. I did attend school but because I signed up to join the British army at 16 years of age, I did not take my exams as they were scheduled for after my joining date.
I served in the Army for just under 5 years
I then served for 30 years in the Fire and Rescue Service.
I have completed part of an Astronomy Degree course at the Open University.
My flying experience is :-
UK CAA Commercial Rotary ME IR (1900) (IR not current)
UK CAA Private Fixed wing (138 hours)
FAA Commercial Helicopter
I have recently passed the FAA theory exams for IR Airplane, Helicopter instructor rating and fundamentals of instruction.
I currently fly for a private owner of a Helicopter.
What I would finally like to achieve is a FAA CPL IR to be able to fly a Seneca V with a Garmin 1000. My fixed wing hours are low and I would be pretty rusty. Can anyone give me guidance please.
