Default My experience with Ari Ben...

I toured the school yesterday and I have to say I was in a little bit of a shock of the layout of the school. They were still under construction from the disastrous effect from the hurricanes last year. Their campus is not something you would show off to a new student. They don't have the resources like other big schools do but I guess that's how they can offer their multi programs at such low prices. The office/dispatch area is not what I was used to compared to Phoenix East which I am currently training right now (Will be switching to Ari). I went to the ramp with Ari and the planes.... They were Dutchess's. I've been flying 152's and 172's and seeing a Dutchess was a whole new expierence for me. I went and sat in the left seat and started scanning all the new buttons The Dutchess are old but well maintained. If those planes can fly, then I'm sold. The housing is nice and there was a current student who took me around. There isn't much to do here in Ft. Pierce but guess what, I'm in it for the flying. I'll be doing the 200 hrs Multi Course and if anyone out there know more about the course or would like to share their experience, please do so I'm excited

I have nothing against going to Phoenix. It's a good school with many professionals. I was doing my Instrument Rating and was on Stage II. I decided to switch purely because of the multi time that Ari Ben has to offer
