Hello guys,

I have concluded my SE IR training after my PPL and have all the reqs for starting MEP/CPL/MEP IR.
My current ATO is having some issues and is generally very slow-paced to book flights. I'm getting worried because my ATPL Theory is approaching expiration, for CPL emission purposes.
From what I see, I still need to complete MEP and then CPL (should be 15 hours) and a SE IR to ME IR conversion (5 hours), unless the school can do it all in the same block?
With that in mind, what are the recommended schools in Europe to conclude this ASAP?

Thanks in advance for your time and help!

Try Egnatia in Greece. Probably best weather this time of year, and they’ll look after you.

It's refreshing to see someone doing things in a sensible order for once! What's the job market looking like at the moment? There's always the option of doing a SE CPL and waiting for things to get better. You can finish up the MEP and MEIR in a few weeks.

Thanks for your answers!
I will be checking Egnatia. Any others worth the check so I can compare before I choose?
Also, I have done all in the same country so far (EASA). Doing some certifications abroad would bring me any issues / setbacks? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the licences would still be emitted by my NAA. Any special care I need to keep an eye on?
