Default Orlando Flight Training?

Im looking for a cheap but well organized flight school that offers JAA/JAR training since im European.

Flight safety is a good one but too pricey...

Check these rates. I think $40,000 is way too cheap for that kind of training, there must be other hidden costs.

Is anyone familiar with that school?

Do you know any other schools that offer JAA/JAR training?

Thanks.

Skymates www.skymates.com is going to offer JAA flight training very soon. We are just waiting for some persons from UK to come here and check the classrooms. You could start the training now though. At the end you will have both FAA and JAA licenses. I don't know the exact price but it should be around $40,000. Hope this helps!

European flight training www.flyeft.com which leases planes from Ari-Ben Aviator www.aribenaviator.com in Fort Pierce Fl. Its about 60 miles south of Orlando.

Good Price, Lots of Europeans (Most of the Instructors)

Good Luck
Bill

I asked Skymates today and the price is going to be around 55-60k

Don't know if you're limited to the Orlando area. You may want to try Naples Airport; London Aviation comes to mind and European Aviation Academy (EAA).

I heard the worst comments about Naples...
Im not limited to the Orlando, just looking for a school that offers cheap but efficient JAA training.

I was there last month, They share space. Nice bunch of instructors, Nic, the one I followed around was from Denmark. Good program from what I saw, pretty laid back but still busy. They provide Apartments for the first 3 months and they are clean & nice, a bit far from the airport but they have a shuttle. The airplanes are trainers and look like trainers, but they do have an active maintenance program.
