Default Questions

I am lost! HA. What is the difference in FSA and FSI. And what is meant by graduates. Is there some kind of plan like ATP or what? Just interested bc I am currently in college, and am looking for a great place to get the rest of my ratings (I have PPL). I would like to go to major strucured school like these istead of just getting the certs. at FBOs. Thanks in advance.

Default Re: Questions

FSI = FlightSafety International (flightsafety.com)

FSA = FlightSafety Academy (flightsafetyacademy.com)

The academy, which most people are talking about on this forum, is owned by FlightSafety International. FSI does aircraft specific simulator training for various jets, turboprops, and piston airplanes whereas FSA does initial pilot training such as pilot certificates and ratings. If you're learning to fly you go to FSA. If you're learning to fly something different you go to FSI.

But, sometimes people say FSI when they really mean FSA. Confusing?
