FSI
I instructed at
FlightSafety from 1991-'92. It is one of the best academy-type schools around. It is expensive, but I believe that you get what you pay for in terms of training, facilities and name recognition. I believe the cost is now something like $60K; it might be less if you already have your Private. Facilities and aircraft are first-rate, ground school is adequate, and you get several acro and unusual attitudes flights. I cannot think of any other school that offers acro training. This is good training because it prepares you for recovering from unexpected attitudes beyond spins, graveyard spirals, etc.
Another plus is you earn your initial Commercial-Instrument in the multis. You first earn your Private multi. After that, you take your instrument training in the multis. Since you are rated in the aircraft it can be logged as pilot-in-command. You finish with something like 50 hours of multi PIC.
FSI grads are hired at the school after they finish. The place has had a program in which it will upgrade you to CFI-I and MEI on its nickel if you agree to instruct for something like 800 hours. In all honesty, getting a CFI job at FSI soon may be tough because of the hiring slowdown across the industry. A couple of people have written me, saying that there is a six-month wait. On the other hand, that could change suddenly if the regionals pick up a bunch of FSI instructors.
When you are hired you won't fly right away. I remember that new-hire CFIs worked in Dispatch, taught ground school, and helped in scheduling. They do fly, eventually. The more senior FSI instructors instruct in the foreign airline contract programs at the school. That is fine experience because they teach procedures for the airlines in question.
I recommend FSI as an excellent flight school. You really should look at several schools in all price ranges before choosing one. Best of luck with your choice.
PS-Did I read on another thread that you finished there already? If so, I reiterate what I said there - you made a good choice.
