Aviator Inc. Anyone been there???
I'm looking into flight schools and I found Aviator Inc. in Ft. Pierce, Florida. Has anyone been there and if so, what was your experience??? They're claiming a month for my PPL with a price tag of approx $6500 and 3 months for their Pro Course for approx $45k. They do offer a $4k refund if you stay for 6 months as a paid instructor. Is this a good program, or should I keep looking??? This is the website link: http://www.aribenaviator.com/
I was originally looking at ATP, but I've ruled them out all together. Please note that I have nothing against ATP. I've just heard too many stories of bad experiences there, and with a price tag of $68k (minimum) for 0-hour to RJ ready, I just can't justify the risk. Not to mention that I just didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling on the phone with them.
Thanks!

Check out www.jetcareers.com, if you haven't already. Do a search. Very controversial, more so than ATP, even.
Whatever you decide, be sure you check the place out in person, and not just the "guided tour", before you sign anything.

Im planning on going there for my multi comm add on and 50 hrs time building. Although I have not been there in person due to family and work reasons I would if you can like de727ups said. Seeing a school in person and talking with the flight department can make or break you decision. I decided to attend based on price, location (I have a place to stay free) and a great friend of mine had nothing but good things to say about them. Its all about how you feel with the place!
