43 Airschool caters for kids that need discipline and a wake up call in the morning. They spoonfeed. So if your wife is older than 20 ( if not ..lucky you ) I suggest you send her off to a smaller school that gives a more personal deal. It 's guaranteed to be cheaper too - 43 is well known for being the most expensive. Also must agree with the statement someone made about experience of instructors. Many other schools will have a better mix of instructors eg. some will actually have some aviation experience - as opposed to the ones at 43 who has mainly never been further than the PE tma. Not saying there is anything wrong with low time instructors - they are good at teaching basics but a few hours with someone that has actually flown a commercial aircraft is worth a lot - especially towards the end of the COM training.
