I am seriously thinking about this school for it's accelerated flight program. Is there anyone who has gone there or heard about the school that could tell me of their experiences there?:cool:

Hi Paklady

I haven't trained with tailweels etc. but myself and a friend ended up spending a day or two with them due to bad weather on a cross country trip in January and were really impressed with their kindness and generosity to two stranded pilots.

The school is a very friendly place and we got talking with a number of their instructors and other staff, students and also the owners (father and son team). The owner told us about his reasons for setting up the school and their accelerated programs and they really seemed to be more interested in getting more and more people into flying rather then just making money.

When we were there in January they had two new C172 G1000 aircraft and there was another on its way along with a number of other aircraft types.

Hope this helps let me know if you want to know anything else
