Three years ago I was in the same boat as you considering those same two schools. I had offers from both and ended up choosing the school in Florida since they offered to pay for my MEI. The two schools are very similar in operation. One thing that kind of scared me away from USAA was the fact that they wanted me to work at the Hondo location, which is way out in the middle of NOWHERE. Denton would be pretty sweet if that's what they are offering. Also I had a friend there who said if they got behind schedule any at all then you had to work on one of your off days. I had a little bit of a problem with that. At Aerosim I always had two days off every week if I wanted them, unless something crazy happened like a tropical storm blew through and shut the school down for a week. Then we would work a six day week after, and often times it was optional.

PM me if you have an other questions and I can share my experience with all of it.

Thanks Tinman1!!!!!!!!!!! When I show up at either school I plan on having my MEI CFII and CFI along with AGI and IGI. I hope I will be worth something to someone after all the hard work I've been putting in along with my ATP written out of the way also. I will be honest I love to fly and I don't mind working but I do believe in rest and relaxation and enjoying the sights and sounds (girls) of which ever location. I don't plan on having a holiday this year but I do plan on brushing up and being ready just like the back up quarterback ready to go into the game at any time. I've been saving money and getting ready to sell everything and start over fresh. Needless to say I'm ready for the challenge.

Wondering what it's currently like working at US Aviation Academy in Denton? QOL, instructor to student ratio, hours per month, etc. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I'm also curious if any of the instructors there are in the Envoy Pipeline program. Thanks.
