Default SAA (Formerly Scanavia)

I am looking for CFI jobs out there. I am currently from the Chicagoland area, and I don't mind the move. I've been to San Diego many times, and when I found SAA, it seemed like a good deal. I wanted to get any information from you folks (personal experiences, second hand stories, etc) about the school. I would especially appreciate information from those of you who actually instructed there. FYI, I am a CFI/CFII/MEI.

HAHA. HAHAHAHA. HAHAHAHAHA. I could never understand why the pro's said STAY AWAY. I only wish I would of listened. If you are not an American then SAA is the place for you. PM me for details. But they ARE NOT worth the move. THEY ARE FULL OF BS. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!

I trained and worked there years ago. They were always honest, and didn't try to pad student's accounts. That is saying a lot in the flight instruction world. It has been a while for me, but the key managers have not changed. I would recommend them based on what I know.

Based on his username, the previous poster may not have succeeded in his aviation endeavors.
