Im looking at all of these schools right now.
If you had to choose out of these schools which would it be? It would be awesome to hear personal feedback on any of these schools that can help me.

FSI no questions asked. Best training. Best teachers. Best CFI's and facilities. BEST MX!!!! Never had a plane break or a MX cancelation once. However it is very expensive. Do it for the flying, not for the money. You wont make any for a long time. Ask Bobbysamd for more info too he instructed there.

What is the average cost for FSI? cant imagine it more than Pan Am

NONE

if you have your degree, go to a local fbo and find a good instructor, and save yourself 30K or 40K

if no degree, attend a good university program and get your degree. You can spend the same amount (sometimes less) and get a 4 year with the flight training. Remember just because its a big fancy flight school doesn't mean the training is any better. Your training is what YOU make it.

I second this statement. Don't be so willing to fork over gobbsof cash...unless you somehow won't have to pay it back. I paid asI went and incurred no debt for flying. Sure it took longer, butit allowed me to afford to be a CFI, and now to afford to be anF/O. Two friends I taught with are still CFIs because they can'tafford the pay cut to be an F/O. Both are FSI grads. Just somefood for thought, good luck in your training!
