You want to be around Falcon field in mesa or good year. Mesa look redmountain ranch area, Goodyear estrella mountain ranch. Not sure what you are looking to spend. |
Thanks for the suggestion, but all of my aviation experience is U.S/FAA. We are looking to get away from Europe, at all costs! (At least for a while). I still have not made a final decision as to the flight school. Interesting comment about KDVT? I am not concerned about the flight school cost, as I only need some instructor modules and I'm set.

At IWA:
Mesa Pilot Dev. Where I worked. No comment.
UND
All ATPs
Lots of cool stuff in the pattern there. F-104, EC-130, 747, Extras, LOT of helos. |
I am looking into ATP as well, thanks for the info (I am a bit far along for Mesa). I must confess, I have not looked into that area as thoroughly as the N and NW areas of the region. I was led to believe that there was higher crime in the area you are referring? This, of course, is only from I read and is probably not entirely accurate. I'll give it a look
Thanks again.
