Nurse2Pilot - I fell victim to a well-executed show myself, so I understand why you'd think that. The marketing team has lots of glossy advertisements and handbooks, but they don't actually come through with the promises they make.

As for flight instructor's being paid well, that's a lie. My instructor told me that each instructor has a different salary regardless of experience or hours, because they were promised a different salary and set of benefits and bonuses when hired. Most of these promises haven't been honored and there is huge frustration between instructors and senior management because of this.

The operations in spain are awful too as the manager was fired, so the instructors's hardly get the hours in anyways to earn, and students therefore don't fly. I'd be surprised if we have more than 20 flights on a day with perfect weather.

This is why they're all leaving, and the students are so unhappy.
