PPL - Benelux
 
Hello everybody,
I'm willing to start my PPL in some time. I don't plan to get an ATPL job soon but yes a good reputated school/academy if in future I change idea.
I wanted to ask the opinion/reviews/reputation/and so on of the following "candidates" for my PPL and if anybody knows a better one (maybe)
My objective is to make the PPL exams in English as I'm not native Dutch (I live in NL)
- Executive Flight
- Sabena Aeroclub Belgium

Thanks a lot guys and safe flights :)

Generally, you will find PPL training in Belgium less expensive than in the Netherlands. Particularly so that in Belgium most fields have a club where you can join as a member. Whether that is worth the longer travel is up to yourself. I would recommend you to visit a couple of fields and judge for yourself what you like and what not.
Do not be confused about Sabena Aero Club, they are really a club, not an academy. At one time there was some kind of tie with the Sabena Airline but it is not clear to me if any of this was passed on to the present Brussels Airlines. Their planes still proudly carry Sabena's S-tail logo!
One real academy in Belgium is BAFA at Antwerp Airport EBAW.
