Default Reduced A320 Type Rating near LA

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a training center I can take a reduced A320 type rating course near LA?

I plan on taking the ATP-CTP course with PanAm in Las Vegas. I wanted to take the 320 course with AeroStar in Florida, but my husband wants me somewhere closer to LA so we can be together (I’m only visiting for a month).

Background info: ICAO license holder currently flying the 320 looking to convert license to an FAA.

Thank you!

I don't think there's any A320 training in Louisiana. The only Airbus training in that state is helicopter, in Shreveport, I believe.

Oh my gosh sorry I meant Los Angeles, CA. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the reply though.

Took my A320 type rating course with K&S Aviation

Company offices in the Phoenix area

https://www.kandsaviation.com/a320-type-rating

- 80 hours of CBT home study, followed by

- 11 days of classroom & simulator in Las Vegas

..:: Avenger Flight Group ::..

CBT program (from a third party vendor) was both tedious, and of marginal quality

Supplemental study and oral preparation using this Red Triangle product on my MacBook Pro

Airbus A320 Study Guide & Aircraft Systems Manual

and this product on my iPhone

https://www.a320cockpit.com/

was sufficient to show up for training feeling well prepared

Once in Las Vegas, all excellent in every respect

Both instructor and TCE were former America West / American Airlines, knowledgeable and professional in every way

Sophie (wife of the K&S owner) fields all inquiries and correspondence

She will likely be helpful with tailoring a course that meets your license conversion needs

HTH

All the best
