What happened to FTA??? I thought that used to be the most prestigious place....
I can certainly recommend to go up north... If I have had to do it all over again I would have gone to Bob Harris or a smaller flying school north of Rocky or Mackay... Although the training I received was pretty good YBAF's schools take your money and all you hear is "thanks for coming...see'ya..."
Someone like Bob Harris or owners/instructors of similar smaller flying schools can help you find your first job or at least can put you in the right direction...
