siucavflight said:You get what you pay for. While the other places might be 50 an hour cheaper the overall price is more. When you can get the rating done in half the amount of time American flyers actually comes out less expensive in the long run.

TDTURBO said:Wrong, I got my private in 35 hrs flat and my instrument in 40 hood and 10 extra without the hood, it was a local FBO. It all depends on the effort of the student and his ability to find an instructor that moves fast and isn't along for the ride to build time. I ran into a few of those and dumped them immediately. Get into a structured program like 135. It worked for me for my private and I did the rest of my ratings 141.

I cant speak of what Flyers insturctors used to get paid only what they get now. It is a salary position that pays between 2400 a month to 3500 a month depending on how long you have been there.
Some programs work for some people and not for others. Yes the hourly rate is more, but anyone looking to build flight time winds up instructing or flying traffic something like that, the people who come to Flyers want in and out in as little amount of time as possible.
Again you get what you pay.
Alright, dammit!! Give it up!!scangadah said:182 per hour?
What is Don's kid racing again?
Metro752 said:Anyone here ever deal with them? They keep calling me.
I asked them what their rates were, $185/hr for a 172 with instructor. $75/ hour for ground.
Why would anyone go to that, seriously, when places are 50-60 $$$$ an hour cheaper!?
