thanks for all the info. im pretty much decided that im going to omni since 1) it costs much cheaper than PAL and CIA.(P1.5M for the PPL, CPL and IFR). last time i heard, PAL costs P2.5M for the ab-initio pilot program.
2) quality training. the increase in the number of students are a proof of this and besides the accident in december 2007, theres not much bad things to say about them. also, CIA wouldnt entrust their students to a low quality school. especially since they're shelling out P4M.
3) 1 student 1 instructor is great. although i doubt they could keep that up with all the students.
all i need to do now is secure an SPL from the ATO.
any tips for this? Omni accepts students with glasses, im not sure about ATO.
