I was rather shocked by their first time pass rates.
Secondly I don’t see the point of paying for their lodging, when you can do it all from home with an I-pad.

This is harder to do if you don’t already have a FAA instrument rating.
Which is why I recommend a FAA PPL and an instrument rating and 175 hours if your not going to a classroom ATPL ground school.
