Some advice please
Hi i was wondering if someone can give me some advice? I have been looking at Orlando Flight Training, at their JAA Private Private Course they offer.
I understand everything listed except at the very bottom of the page where it says this:
JAA Private Pilot Training Eligibility Requirements:
1. Be able to speak and understand the English language.
2. Hold a current U.K. JAA class 2 medical certificates.
3. Pass the U.K. JAA PPL written examinations with a score of 75% or more.
4. Pass a radiotelephony practical test.
5. Complete a qualifying a 150 NM cross country flight.
6. Pass a U.K. JAA skill test.
Does that mean that i would have had to fly in the UK before i can apply for this course?
Can somebody explain this to me?

Flying
Hi,
These are all the requirements for your course. All of these can be done in Orlando.
So you don't have to do any flying in the UK first. You will need to give yourself at least 6 weeks to do this course, As there is a lot to do.
You might find it worth while doing a few hours in the UK to give you some idea of what to expect when you go over to the USA.
You may have to get your medical before going out.
Good luck
Colin
