Hello all!

I am brand new to the forum and just wanted to ask a few questions in finding an accelerated program for zero time to CFI.

A little back story, since I was young I have wanted to be a pilot in the military. My father was a NFO and my sister currently is a pilot in the Navy. Unfortunately I had a medical issue with the military that has been causing lots of issues and I am thinking of switching to go more of a commercial route. I just graduated from college with a B.S. in Earth and Climate sciences and am looking in to accelerated programs.

I was wondering if any of you had suggestions for accelerated programs that will actually keep the "promises" they preach. I have seen super mixed reviews for ATP and am unsure of that route and have looked at a lot of other smaller locations such as Blue Line in North Carolina, Double Eagle in Arizona etc.... I am going to be moving to wherever the training takes place and not working during the training to complete it as fast as possible. I am a very independent learner so an accelerated course will work well for me as I prefer to study etc on my own.

If anyone has suggestions on where to go, or not to go and you have reasons behind your suggestions please let me know! Any help is greatly appreciated and I appreciate any responses.

Thanks a bunch!

P.S. I am aware that realistically I should expect around 9+ months realistically for zero to CFI and probably around another year and a half maybe a bit more for my 1500 hours.
