from spain to ariben aviator
 

hi guys this is my first post (exucse my level of english) i have been looking for an academy for my training and i really like ariben(but i only have seen its website) i'm interested in their jaa program, because mi idea is to return to spain after to years(spending one of them as instructor for time-building) and finally convalidate my license and i want to know your opinions about this:
-is it neccesary to hire a car because of long distances?
-what are the probbalitties to be hired as instructor there, how many hours does the instructors give?(coming from sapin is an incovenient?)
- is real that i can get all my lencenses in six months like they say??
-until i finish my two years j-1 visa can i stay in usa if some company hire me?
-what are the real state of the housing?


that's all guys(it's a lot)
thanks a lot you are dping a great job¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
let's fly¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

is it neccesary to hire a car because of long distances?
no, buy a bike at walmart! check on google map. and use greyhaunt for long distance.

-what are the probbalitties to be hired as instructor there, how many hours does the instructors give?(coming from sapin is an incovenient?)

your chance are good if you ask for a contract before doing your cfi under a J1 visa.

- is real that i can get all my lencenses in six months like they say??

noway, schools tell you anything to get your cash! count 1 year!

-until i finish my two years j-1 visa can i stay in usa if some company hire me?

not at all. if you leave the school, u have to leave the USA and your J1 is over.your visa is bonded to the school and no company will/can hire you.


-what are the real state of the housing? they have housing to share at 500$/room, but you can share an appartment and pay 200$ or even less/month

First of all welcome to the forum.

Ariben Aviator don't have a JAA program? So you either mean their FAA 200hr 'pro course' or the JAA APP course at EFT (Same building as Ariben).

I've not been there but I hear it's a 10 minute drive. So car sharing would be advantages.

Both courses at Ariben and EFT will give you the chance to fork as a CFI/FI after completing your training. I was told by Trevor at EFT I'd have between 80 and 120 hours per month instructing.

Yes, but this will depend on your ability, weather, AC availability etc. As posted in another thread there were 12 CPL students sharing 1 AC.

No, unless you have American parents, a green card, or marry an American Citizen.

I guess you mean what condition the accommodation is in? I have read it's tidy but you get what you pay for.

These two threads might come in handy too.

There are loads of threads on Naples on pprune ... You just need to search.

Bloody hot and humid out there. Not like the UK. Everything is miles apart. A car is a must! (maybe i'm just unfit)
