I think but not sure that you are talking about the Horizon in Al Ain.
If so take a look in the students parking area, cars are all very expensive, not like you would find in the real world where people drive beaters just to pay for ratings.
I do know some of the instructors there are very good experienced people, some ex Saudia.
They did get the best of the best, but Saudia remains far below industry standards when it comes to salary.
Horizon prices seem a bit on the high side.
Seen an ad in the papers here in the USA a few days ago, first lesson or introductory flight 50 USD,.
No,,,I don't work for Horizon., just in the local area for flying,,,but do know some of the instructors there and they are good professional people.
