Default Ari Ben Interested Thanks Everyone

Hello Everyone,
I'd like to introduce myself my name is Ken. I've been reading everyones posts for sometime now, debating on where to go earn my flight certifications. I would like to say thank you to everyone for the good info and the comments that had nothing to do with aviation. lol. I'm going to Ari Ben for a visit on Tuesday looking forward to it.
A little about me I've been on the same quest as alot of you looking at countless schools from west coast to east coast. I must say its a daunting task, going through the information each school presents you with. For me I'm a career changer like some of you I've read. I'm a flight engineer in the Navy at the moment or for at least 10 more months, then to Ari, to actually fly aircraft . But once again thanks for the posts. Hope to see you down there. Take Care, Ken

Sorry. There was an instructor here who was a FE in the airforce on a KC135. His last name is Keeter, and I think his username is 'shorefly'.

Ya I'm a Navy Crewchief but no one knows what that is usually and the flight time is FE logged so I just say Flight Engineer sorry for the confusion.

Just a quick note here. Although I am not attending nor am I affiliated with AriBen in any way. I suggest you speak to a student there, his name is Sonny. I spoke to him on the phone for about 45 minutes the other day, and I feel like if you want a NO BS opinion of the program there, you should talk to him. He was about the first person at any school that laid everything out in what I considered REALITY, and not HYPE!!!!
