If I don't actually attend a flight school in person do you think it's a good idea to reach out to students on LinkedIn or social media?
Probably not. Issue you have is the most prolific social media posters from school tend to be the #Pilot types, by definition. You’ll get an overly warped excited and rosy picture of the school. If you’ve been messed about and had your training pushed back for months and aren’t happy with the instructors you’d be less likely to post the #TraineePilot epaulettes selfie.
Linkedin you see the gushing posts thanking the school for all their hard work and help passing. Presumably to try and get in the good books to get a job somewhere, maybe. It’s the student’s £100K and hard work that’s made them pass, not the school. No different to thanking Tesco for their help and support for you finishing your #Shopping
