Training in Spain

A friend of mine has in fact advised me not to go to Aerodynamics-Malaga, mainly due to it being more expensive & unluckily enough, during his time, some aircraft were unserviceable.
Could be just tough luck - but that was his experience!

Option 1 is if you are holder of a PPL licence and you need the MEP + IR
Option 2 is if you already hold the CPL licence (with SEP)
Option 3 is if you are holder of CPL AND MEP rating
Option 4 is if you are PPL holder with MEP already
So combinations on whether you are a PPL (SE or ME) or CPL (SE or ME)

Nowadays the only FTO for the integrated ATPL course in Comunidad Valenciana is Airmed (Valencia). From my point of view is quite overpriced for the flight and sim. time they offer.
If I started my ATPL training again I would definitely go to Flight Training Europe (FTE) in Jerez. You will finish when you were said and the training is superb. All in English. It worths the money.

If you want to get just the PPL you can have a look to this link: http://www.fomento.es/NR/rdonlyres/0...cuelas_ppl.pdf You will find all PPL schools recognised by the DGAC. However, if after the ppl you decide to continue with the CPL you will have to go out of Alicante.

CPL FBO in Spain?
I am looking for an FBO that will do the JAA CPL course in Spain. I am due to finish ATPL exams in the next couple of months.
I did have a couple in mind, but I have been told that they don't do the individual CPL anymore, opting to concentrate on the more 'lucrative' Integrated Courses.....?
My plan was to get CPL abroad for the weather/cost etc, and then do the MEIR back in blightly.
Does anybody have any recomendations on FBO's in Spain (if any) that still run the JAA CPL course? I don't really want to go over to the States if possible.
Cheers all

You might want to consider doing the IR out there instead, since (as hinted by the last poster) you are required to do the CPL flight test in the same state that you completed the ATPL theory. At least thats how I understand it.
That said, would anybody care to comment on whether people can do their CPL skills test in the US? I know one can train for it out there?

No..not aware of the State of Licence Issue. I will have done my ATPL sits here in the UK, and since people have subsequently done CPL etc in the US, assumed (mental note to self....don't assume anything in aviation!) that completing the CPL in a JAA member state would count.
That said...when the CPL is done in the states, its generally a JAA CPL and not an FAA CPL isn't it?
I am clearly lacking some knowledge in this area....would anybody on this glorious forum care to help offer a guiding hand?

Essentially the CAA approve those FTOs for UK-issued JAR licences. Search and check "Standards Document 31" on the CAA website. Note the very few US businesses offering CPL and there are definately no full JAR IR courses out there.

If you can swing some residency time in Spain, you could get aournd the problem.
