To transfer flight school or not
I'll be finishing my PPL shortly. My original plan was to finish everything at my current school, but I started thinking otherwise recently.
First, handful of students failed initial instrument checkride because this school doesn't teach timed approach. I heard there's something else in our training airplane that does not require timed approach. Is timed approach a very important thing to learn during instrument stage?
Second, majority of our training is done in a light sport aircraft all the way to CFI. I wonder if I'll be able to instruct in other planes like Cesna, Piper, and Cirrus if I do majority of training in a light sport aircraft.
Thanks in advance for your inputs.
