QUESTION: thank you sir
and can i take my training from aviation universities in
Europe  

Answer
Hi Ravi,
Of course you can take training in europe at europian aviation universities. However, fact is if you are looking for really cheaper flight training, USA is the place to train. You see Indian Korean, and even Lufthansa airlines own flight training schools in USA and they bring flight training aplicants from Europe to train in USA. There are numerous flight schools that are specialized just for training Indian, Korean, German, Japaneese students in USA, and only reason why everybody comes here for training is much more affordable price for flight training versus Europe. Europe is notoriously more expensive because the regulations, landing fees, renting fees and so on.

Good Luck
