Just be careful about anyone who wants you to sign a training contract. No one who has a worthwhile product needs to tie you down. A school should be good enough to just know you wont want to leave.
Also, no upfront paying. Ditto the reason above. Anyone with a worthwhile product will be happy to let you will pay them as you go. They know you're not going to go anywhere else, since they will provide you with quality.

If they're so short of instructors, how long would they take to "work" me into their schedule??? 2, 3 months??
Now, if instructors at the FBO's make decent money, say similar to the big schools of somewhere between 35k and 40K, I'd be game for that too. Gotta pay bills while building time, you know! |
