Accelerated Flight Training Center (AFTC)

Has anyone had any experience with this accelerated training center based at the Long Beach Airport? I and a friend of mine are considering taking our 172/SP from KSAT to Long Beach to go through their Instrument Course.
We understand from their website that you are "Guaranteed" to pass your Oral and Checkride. If you do not, the retraining is no additional cost until you do pass. We have not been able to get through to them as of yet (left VM's, which is somewhat concerning). Does anyone know anything about this outfit?

My brother took their course several months ago and ended up quitting on the 7th day. he flew all the way to long Beach for the training from Pennsylvania to train with the owner only to call it quits due to the drill instructor mentality and constant delays. My brother ended up having a school come to PA and finish up the training and he got his ME and commercial as well. I would exercise exterme caution. Hope this helps. ps no refund was given for the 3 days not used.:mad:

I sent them an email asking for detailed questions [I like details] and never got a response [still waiting]. I've subsequently dropped them from my short list of potential Instrument Training sources.

This is probably the best flight training I have every received. Even though they had 6 IFR students on going at the same time we all received individual attention with our own instructor. I chose them due to prior client recommendations and I am happy I made the choice.
Good luck
