First post here, hello everyone!
Don Vito, I like you have done lots of research on flying schools here in the country and boiled it down to Omni. I'll be starting on April 21 and plan to take the full PPL, CPL, IFR package...yep I'm excited!
With cost being a major concern for me, Omni seems to be the most reputable and I also haven't heard much negative things about them.
With regards to getting a SPL, once you have given Omni the go signal a liaison officer will accompany you to the ATO and help you out with your requirements so basically you have that area covered.
I've got glasses too but it's a non-issue since they will test your visual capacity. As long as you check out 20/20 with the glasses your good. They will require you to secure an extra set of glasses prior to testing so make sure you have one.
