Default Re: Flying Schools

They are all overpriced routes into the piloting profession. They work for some people, especially for those whom money is no object or those who have VA benies to spend. Just don't buy off on the marketing hype you'll see at the schools websites. Be sure to visit each school personally and talk to students on the side, not part of the official tour.

I think the best route into the profession is to train at a quality smaller school, get your CFI, and work your way up.

Be especially wary of schools that promise you a job or an interview.
