Good flying schools that are registered with CRICOS.

Hi all,
I am just wondering if you guys can recommend any good flying schools for MECIR that are registered with CRICOS (schools that are registered with the government and accept international students).
Cheers

I would have gone to Canada or US but I already got my CPL from Australia so I can only do it there otherwise I would have to convert the license just to do the MEIR course.

And don't forget, most Australian "ripp of" schools don't give you a license unless you can actually fly the aircraft to the required standard, not just "here's the money, why haven't I got my license yet?"

ps. Pass in English language proficiency is required for license issue too.

Yes, keep hearing good things about MFT.

Their fleet is older and limited, but seems a good school.
