Have the time to devote to it. If you can fly at least 3x per week, you will do it in fewer hours (and it will be a lot cheaper) than only doing 1 lesson/wk

Good point. Do you have a pilot license?
reply
If you travel a lot, especially in the USA, having a plane (or being able to rent one) is very nice…it is deadly serious business though - most people with enough money to buy an airplane tend to forget that…”stay humble” not only stacks more sats, it will also keep you alive in the air.

Yes, I worked as a flight instructor back in the day, I have about 2000 hrs dual given.

That is cool! I might have some questions soon if you don’t mind. I assume training isn’t vastly different between countries.
Maybe that is my first question haha

Probably not much different, most of the world just takes FAA standards and copy pastes. Various regulations and airspace rules are slightly different. Flight training in the USA is so much cheaper, people come from around the world to train in Florida and just convert their FAA pilot certificate to a JAA or whatever local authority they fall under.
As long as your country falls under ICAO, you can fly pretty much anywhere, you just need to do some research on what rules might be different like airspace, etc.
