Question
Hi,Adrian Beney.

I have such a great desire to fly but I understand that I have to start with ppl.In our country,it is very expensive to fly and I would like to know the possibilities of getting a scholarship to do private pilots training(PPL)which will,I believe will boost a scholarship to do commercial piloting,which Am dying to in life,though Am a trained and practising Accoutant in Kenya,(an East African country.)

Your advise is highly appreciated.
Thankyou.

Answer
Hi Nelson

Try the Guild of Air Pilots and Navigators at www.gapan.org

Also you could see if you could get some voluntary work with Mission Aviation Fellowship who operate out of Wilson Airport in Nairobi. That might boost your knowledge of aviation.

Good luck!
