ConnectionPilot, aren't you already going to DCA? From what I have heard RAA is just like any money sucking academy who doesn't care about the student. Gulfstream on the other hand is not a good option, at least for your reputation and future employement at airlines. Good luck finding a job other than a regional. If you are trying to get out of DCA and have college, try ATP. They can customise the training so you don't have to start from the beginning and they are flat rate.
