Hello
I'm 19 years old and want to become a commercial pilot which had been my deam since i was little. I have already take several flights with an instructor just to make sure that flying is for me.
I own both Japanese and Israeli passports. I do not have any flying experience nor adequate knowledge thus I have found a school in Orlando that offers "Zero to JAA ATPL" or "Zero to FAA ATP" program for about $50000.
The problem isn't the money ( I have an external source of financail aid) , So my question is should I go for JAA or FAA?? Since I do not own an European passport most European airliners won't take me even if I had sufficient time. However I heard that the JAA education is much better than the FAA and also easier to convert to FAA.
Ive also heard that Asia is demanding quite alot of pilots. Thus, I seriouly do not know what to do.
Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.
