I would love to know the status of both the PDK and AHN locations. If they will be open soon. Will those locations have multiengine trainers.

And also. . . I'd like to know how / if at all, the FFC location will be changing. I'll be coming through there during the Thanksgiving weekend to ask some questions and to see the facilities. So long as nothing odd stands out, I plan on enrolling for next summer - first week in June.

Holy cow. . . my goodness. That's amazing. Where are they getting the planes and staff? (Or are they just buying the schools that WERE operating at the other locations?)

Hell, I'm just going to keep my mouth shut until Spencer gives us some news or I come in through the offices in a couple weeks. Talk about expansion.

Definately . . . I should be there. I have a certain thing for supporting local businesses, and well, Falcon is about as local as you can it. I'm sure you will enjoy the program. I haven't heard anything negative about it. Feel free to PM me any questions you have and I'll be sure to ask them when I visit the facilities over the US Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

I would also like to think, that with this expansion, prices for the program could come down. But honestly, I'd really like to see them have a VA program that resembles Aviator. Would be a perfect environment to get some of those VA students that are only going to goto Aviator because they advertise such a program.

Falcon is still first on my list, although Aviator is always temping for the price. As long as prices remain steady, I'll see you all there in September. I'll be visiting them in May.

Yeah I noticed that a few weeks ago. Ended up putting a thead in the Jobs forum with the information. Not sure if anyone has given it a shot.

Default New Locations

Hopefully this will answer some of the questions. PDK and AHN are all ready open and operational. At this time there is not a multi engine airplane at AHN, however if there was interest there would not be a problem placing an airplane there. PDK should have a multi engine airplane soon, if not all ready. For anyone interested in the PDK location on Nov. 16th from 5-7PM we will have our airplanes on display and instructors available to answer any questions at the 57th fighter squadron building on the airport. My guess on the Newnan location is this coming end of summer or fall. FFC location will remain open. Falcon Aviation Academy is currently interviewing/hiring instructors due to expansion and potential loss of instructors headed to the airlines, FAA or orther flying opportunities.

Where is Falcon going to have an office at PDK. Its it on the main drive in or over by Signature?
