It depends on whether they want a full JAA license, or just the ATPL TK portion. If the former, the price is higher due to the fact that they would need to do 6 month of flying in the UK. If not, then the price is the same as before.

Licensing Req's
Hi Wis,
It all depends on what licence you need. If you are going to fly aircraft registered to a JAA nation (ie. European), you must obtain a JAA licence. As such, you will need to do a certain amount of "local" flying in a JAA state.

Not that I have any concerns, the lady is very competent, thorough and hardworking. It is more surprise that
a) It is no longer Captain B
and b) It isn't a former member of RJ or one of the inspectors.
Interesting.

Jordan's Ayla offers training alternative
By Alan Peaford
Closer training links between the emerging Chinese market and the Middle East could benefit Asian Aerospace debutant Ayla Aviation Academy.
The Aqaba, Jordan-based training centre is one of the most modern and well-equipped in the world and has been training aspiring pilots from airlines such as Gulf Air, Kuwait Airlines and Royal Jordanian.
But chief executive Marwan Atalla says he believes the company can benefit from the growth in training demand from China.
Working with its sister establishment Atlantic Flight Training in Coventry in the UK, Ayla has Joint Aviation Authorities approval to conduct airline transport pilot licence theoretical knowledge training at its ground school facility.
Atalla says: "Ayla was founded on the premise of providing advanced and innovative flight training and education based on a JAA syllabus in the region. Now using both schools, Ayla and Atlantic, we are able to provide cadets with a fully approved JAA licence, making them more marketable and competitive in the global market.
"With the whole growth of Chinese aviation market there is a demand for 50,000 pilots. We believe we can play a great part in helping meet that demand."

Ayla was highly dependant on Bahrain Development Bank funded students from Bahrain. This source of students will have dried up with the formation of the Gulf Aviation Academy (linked to BDB), who now send students to Oxford in the UK.

Reference your post of yesterday regarding AFT - I heard that the HOT and CFI left, and the CGI was fired -(in post for less than a month)! If true, that's really unfortunate - losing 3 unsuitable managers in the space of a month!, especially when they were all approved by the CAA.

If that is the practice of Ayla/AFT they must have a really high staff turnover rate. Surely there can't be many more unsuitable managers/instructors around the world left to hire and fire!
