I did 50 hours at Ormond Beach and 50 hours at Anglo-American!

Anglo was brill as it was mountain flying - you were also really close to Las Vegas (so you can go for nights out there), Big Bear Ski Resort which is brill for a density altitude checkout, Palm Springs, LAX and San Fransisco!
The only thing with Anglo is that they are a bit laxed and you really have to keep on top of them about everything! If you willing to do this then I would go here! - They also let you pay as you go which is really good!

Ormond was good and there is alot of places to go flying to e.g. the Keys etc.. but it is very regimented and if you dont turn up they'll screw you for the money! Ormond make you pay up front which is crap if your there for a set time and you cant complete all your hours as there is no way your getting a refund!


I would also agree with the other guys about doing a rating to build hours! How many hours do you have? Poss do your complex or ME if your not up for or dont have the money to do your IR!

But make sure you enjoy the flying whatever you do :-)
