What are the Best (international-based) Flight academies out there?
 

Hey guys,

Whats up!!

Do you guys happen to know any international-based flight academies that are good and don't get to screw you over and teach you everything so quickly and then just leave you?

Its been hard to find a good one.

thanks guys,

Which part of the world do you want to train in and for which license?

Echo ... echo ... echo

Well, I would like to get an ATPL JAA License. I am still in Zero level though. No previous experience in flying before.

Btw, is it possible for a pilot to have both FAA and JAA licenses ??

Yes it is possible to have FAA AND JAA. I'd recommend going to get the FAA certificates first as training in the US for the FAA then doing a JAA conversion will be less expensive than doing the JAA then an FAA conversion.

You know what Michael that actually makes a lot of sense. You are not the only person who actually told me that. I think im going to actually do that. So like what are the good schools in the US. I heard the Texas, Arizona, Florida are like the top states. What do you think ?

Hey Omar, by your location i am assuming you're Egyptian. I know quite a few Egyptians who took the plunge to flight school. If you are looking at working in Egypt i dont think a JAA is that important. The guys i know Did their training in South Africa, Pilot Training South Africa | Port Alfred Flying School and Cape Flying Services and the conversion in Egypt was a peice of cake.
On the other hand, if JAA or FAA is what you want or need, then i think the states is the way to go, quite a few good schools there, like Accelerated Flight Training | Flying Lessons - FlightSafety Academy in Florida.

Best of Luck :ok:
