If you do a 40 hour class over 3 months does that make you better then the guy who did the same 40 hour class in a week? I understand not all people have the desire and motivation. I guess you must be one of them. I supposed you preferred to be hitting happy hour and the bars all night. the course isn't for everyone, you have to come in knowing your information. Ask the owner he will tell you that Riddle and Comair academy guys were his worst students and failed more the the 61 FBO guys.
