flying usa
 

evening all

planning on going to Florida early 2004 to embark on one of those suspiciously cheap hours-building courses, commonly found in the back of the magazines. Trying to build up to 200 hours, then starting CPL groundschool in UK, unsure whether to do modular/integrated yet, and probably stick with Cabair who I did my PPL with...

Has anybody used these block-rate courses in the USA?
Also are they frowned upon by the airlines in any way?

appreciate any remarks/outrage

T1000

Have done them.........no problem.,.................if ur going to oba have fun :)

but if ur going to do an integrated course then dont bother just egt stuck straight into it

Thanks TFMonty

Got used to flying in Australia, bit sunnier than Kentish weather and less aircraft to dodge. Also funny accents

I have just come back from Florida they are as cheap as they say but if u are not very carefull you can spend lots and lots on the "extras" like a/c upgrades maps.........
