I recently e-mailed Aerofan to find out information on some of the accomodation. Apparently they have an arrangement with a local hotel for 37euro's per night. javascript:ol('http://www.hostalcervelo.com/ingles/index.html');

James at Aerofan replied to my email today and said that accommodation was available near the airport at around 250euros per month. This seems very very cheap and i am assuming that it must be shared for this price. Im am planning to go out there in a week or two so if anybody wants any more info just pm me and i will ask.

Aerodynamics

You should also check out Aerodynamics malaga they have a better reputation in Spain, they are a little more expensive but they are based out of Malaga which is full IFR and donīt have to position for training. Your also on the coast.

no worries mate, im actually just looking at flights for this weekend or next weekend. if you go, check out last minute .com for a hotel and flight deal. miles cheaper than even going direct to the easyjet, monarch or BA websites. going to give them a call tommorow morning to see if they are operational on saturdays, if so i think i will pop over this weekend.

Hi Jim

Was debating signing up for ME / IR with them today so would also be interested.... I know one person that had to return early because their 310 went tech (they only have one), but that doesn't really say much about the quality of their teaching.

PM me if you want to compare notes!

an aircraft tech is not a reflection on teaching quality...it is one of those things that happens and you could be really buggared if you are under a time restriction
I supposed someone is going to use the opportunity to step in and recommend aerodynamics or something..how predictable

Dear all looking at Aerofan.

Please keep me posted and anything your research highlights (good or bad) as I am also looking at this place for early 2006 (full ATPL.)

Going to take PPL and hour build in Australia over this winter.

Going to East coast to stay with family in Sydney.

There are a few FTO's at Bankstown airport there but not sure which I will use for my PPL until I get there and check them out.

The price is more expensive than Florida but you come away with 70 hours.

Are you building up to ATPL?

Iīm currently out in madrid with aerofan working on my ME/IR and can certainly advise anyone if they PM me with specific questions. I would say that, inevitably, there are plus and minus points!

AEROFAN Flight Training

I would appreciate any feedback/advice from any British students who have done their Modular ME-IR with Aerofan. I am considering going to them for mine in 2006. Any help gratefully received!

Aerofan has been covered several times fairly recently here. Try a search for what info exists.

Reviews on AEROFAN Flight Training

I need some general information about Aerofan in Spain.

How is the standard of their ME IR?
Do you have to fly far away to do approaches?
Is it realistic to do the JAA ME IR within 2-3 weeks?

Looking forward to many answers.
