Oldest flight training scam in the book... "We provide a better quality training" BS! Airlines and other employers only care about the ratings and flight time you have, not wher you got them (unless your school's name starts with the words "United States").

You should probably capitalize your sentences as well or risk not being taken seriously. Lay off the guy.

Check out www.allatps.com

If you're willing to spend the money to attend DCA you'll be saving a fortune by going to ATP.

Don't waste your time at the local FBO doing it part-time...You are better of getting it done ASAP and moving on to the next step - CFI.

Don't worry, I'll make sure I use proper grammar from here on out.
