Plenty of info for you
Hey mate,
I'm an Aussie on the east coast of the U.S and have just completed the full deal here. Through to CFI etc.
Send me a private message and I'll fill you in. I went to a great school, they are much smaller than a FL school, but not ridiculously small. They have 3 G1000 aircraft, a twin, Cessnas and Diamond.
I did a lot of research an dthink I found a happy medium... there may even be job prospects.
Tim.
