Hey guy, looking at doing flight training at Essendon. Close to home so the extra costs will prob match up to fuel and travel time.. feel free to inbox me the good and bad experiences with the Essendon schools. Seems like one of the schools would like 50% up front or paid in full for rpl. Looking at going ppl eventually but wanted to learn close to home so I can get more than one lesson in a week. I know most of them use bacchus marsh training area but I guess I’m still learning as we are flying to bacchus marsh? Thanks for your imput and blue skys and safe flying to you all
