I am somewhat familar with both of those schools. Both have good reputations but are expensive, and as Slice said you can do much better than that. You ought to consider the fact you will earn about $20k per year the first year or two in your regional airline career and no more than $40k for planning purposes the next two years. AeroAtlanta in Kenessaw may be able to beat it, and Flight School at Gwinnett. There is no hurry to get there at least as far as flight training goes, in fact it is better to try and minimize debt. There is also a small school at KFTY you might try- Fulton Aviation... they only have a couple of airplanes and should have some pretty low rates.
