Good Flight Schools?

[Aviation Geek]

Give American Flyers a shot. They have lots of locations, including Florida. I was very happy with their training and the people I worked with. The CFIs on staff are top notch. While they are a business, they are very flexible, work with your "learning style" and seemed dedicated to reaching the you set.

I attended North American Institute of Aviation in Conway, SC. They can get the CFII done in about 6 months. I only attended the school to finish up my Inst/com but my roomies did the 0 - CFII in 6 months. It was a very good school plus it's close to Myrtle Beach.

Prairie Air service. Hands down one of the best reputations out there and great multi pricing for when or if he wants to build (buy) a little multi time.

Good god, do yourself and your bud a favor and go to Med or Law school instead.

How about taking a little longer than 6-8 months and actually gain some experience.

Trogdor,

Are you jealous because it took you a while?

I did my ratings in 6 months because I busted my butt and studied and worked hard. Then I paid my dues by instructing, and flying freight, and flying for some small 135 operators and finally got the dream job. Theres no reason to waste time and taking 2-4 years just to get your ratings. As they say in the airlines, senoirity is everything in this career.

whats the hurry? There are lots of ticket factories out there. Take your time, learn as much as you can. DCA's program will run you about 10 months. Besides, the airlines aren't going anywhere. Not that anyone should be in a hurry to get FURLOUGHED!

Don't bother with DCA. They are way overpriced and have old beat up airplanes.

If it were me, I would go and do Flight Safety's advanced airline training program. There were at least 15 people in recent new hire classes at ASA with less than 500 hrs TT. For the money they seem to be the best bet in the US right now. Especially if you are looking at spending some cash. I think almost all of them did it in less than a year. Plus their aircraft are new and it is located in a pretty nice area (Vero Beach), unlike Slumford.
