They didn’t have a simulator, it was just a small airstrip and a hangar with two glider planes and one plane with an engine iirc.
That's wild. How long will it take to get fully certified to fly?

It depends a lot on how often you have time to fly. You need to fly at least 45 hours from which 10 are solo and 5 are cross country:
The practical part of the training contains 45 flight lessons, 10 lesson hours of which have to be flown without a flight instructor (solo), whereby again at least 5 lesson hours of which need to be cross country flights. One of these cross country flights need to have a minimum flight route of 270 km containing two stops at foreign airports. Furthermore, controlled airports have to be approached as part of the training (such as the airport of Berlin Schoenefeld). On top of that the training contains instructions in instrument rating and radio navigation. Therefore, we are mainly using our Diamonds DA20s, Cessna C-152 und C-172.

So it's going to take a while! Well good for you, I'm happy you get to experience something like that.
