Thunderstorm season already. Morning flight was canceled, but ive still got two more to go. anyone want to bet they get canned as well? at least one guy is a commercial student, but you cant chandelle with 2500 ft ovc.

Chandelle as a verb...I like it.

Let's go outside and chandelle this afternoon.

Anyway, I can hardly do those things when it's VRB03 CLR 40SM.

I am thinking of going down to prairie air service and convert my canadian commercial (230 hrs TT) to U.S and do the CMEL apache initial (8 hrs)+ ME-I.R apache (25 hrs )+ CSEL C-150 add on....i think since, I have a multi eng rating on my canadian license...they were giving me a little better deal....total ...approx quote of $8500...depending on performance.

It seems like a good place to get the initial ratings done fast and for reasonable rates...the per hr charge for the multi has been raised to $180.00 but still is cheaper than other places( apache mind you). The instructor/owner sounded very knowledgeable in converting foriegn licences and experienced since he has been doing this for a long time, so I hope i will be getting quality training.

i have never flown the apache....my canadian multi rating was on an Aztec....any thoughts of doing your training on an apache vs seminole....or should i be willing to spend some more money and do the ratings on the seminole....as i plan to instruct after ...and most likely at a school with seminoles.

Also does anyone know of any other places in the U.S with similar rates as PAS....I don't want to compromise quality training in the search for cheaper schools....but we all know it's expensive to do this ...and i don't want to take loans if i don't have to.

Any thoughts would help.
