Default How much longer?

Mike,

What hasn't returned to the same level is the British flavored fly-schools.
Any ideas on that?


Well, your simple-sounding "come on over" involves TSA checks months in
advance, visas for simple add-on ratings and thus, using only flight schools
that can request visa (Part 141 only?), deciding on a flight school and having
to stick with it before even coming over, and more quite onerous and expensive
pseudo-security stuff. I'm sure that's a big part of the reason.
