CPL flying course - where?

Title says it all really, where would you folk recommend as good places to do the flying element of the JAR CPL with a view to later doing an FI rating?

Thanks

Currymonster - thank you, Sir!

Are there any more personal recommendations - WORLDWIDE?

Yes, C - the competition on the farm is too intense! When are you going to visit in your clattering palm-tree?

Canadian Flight Centre or Pacific Flying Club, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Granted your CPL will be Canadian, but its fully convertible back to JAA. Canada (used to?) operate a simple visa system whereby you can train as an instructor and work as one for up to two years after your course.

Check South Africa ! I was going for Canada, but now I'm more and more convinced that SA may well be a better option.
