Looking for flight school
 

Hi Im new, Im from Mèxico City and my dream of all life its to become a commercial pilot, but in Mèxico the major part of the school are so bad, they have very bad manteinance, and currently bad aircraft and the course isn`t the best.

My family told me about study in US and I like the idea, but I dont have any idea of schools at your country, I hear about Alpha Tango but I don`t find their web page, also I find Encore aviation at LAX (Van Nuys) but here in this forum I was reading that its not a good idea.

I like Miami, Los Angeles and NY so Im looking schools near there like 50 or 60 miles, if you can tell me about some schools and recomenndations jaja and reviews Im gonna be very grateful


Cheers !!!

On websites like www.airnav.com you can search by Airport for flightschools.
You will need to find what is called a 14 CFR Part 141 school as they are the only ones allowed to train foreign students. You also need an M1 visa for the duration of your training.
Either that or enroll in a university with an aviation program and you can stay 4-6 years on a F-1 ( academic) visa.

You might also consider an F-1 visa university program like Tarrant County College's partnership with US Aviation:

Check out AOPA.org , they will have a lot of training schools info too. Good luck with everything.

Falcon aviation academy in metro Atlanta does a lot of foreign training as well. They have housing as well.

Phoenix, Arizona area does a lot of foreign training.
