Is this a good program, or should I keep looking??? This is the website link: http://www.aribenaviator.com/

I was originally looking at ATP, but I've ruled them out all together. Please note that I have nothing against ATP. I've just heard too many stories of bad experiences there, and with a price tag of $68k (minimum) for 0-hour to RJ ready, I just can't justify the risk. Not to mention that I just didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling on the phone with them.

Thanks!
A few things to keep in mind.

Never set a price in stone in your mind. Things happen and sometimes the price goes up or it takes you more time. In the case of Ari-Ben more then likely it will be more then 45K.

Never set a time table set in stone, things happen.

Go to a school in an area you like.

Don't let the little things get in your way.

If you have a family (wife and/or kids) have them move with you.

Don't give all the money up front and don't sign a one sided contract.

If you want more Ari-Ben info send me a PM.
