Flight School Advice
A friend of mine has decided to become a pilot despite my warnings.
It has been many moons since I was walked around by the flight school sales girl with the perfume and showed the best of the fleet.
So, a few questions for you recent grads out there.
1) Are there any pay per rating schools left? (instead of per flight hour)
2) Is there an obvious choice with a good guaranteed job at the end of the rainbow?
3) Would you recommend the school you went to?
Thanks in advance!

Even if you buy the zero to hero package at say, American Flyers, if you are not talented enough to do it in the time frame given you WILL have to pay more to finish. It is not a guaranteed time frame for completion any more than a college degree is scheduled but never guaranteed.

Not being in tens of thousands of dollars in debt, and making good money in the process. It may not be for everyone, but IMO the best option and you don't have to be privileged to get in like mentioned above. If you are a hard worker and determined a person can get it done. Tons of average folks have done it, myself included.
For the record, I did my private through commercial part 141 in college so know about paying for it. Of course the guard or reserve path the best option over active duty.
