2 friends?
Do these 2 friends work for lion air or have done the Eagle jet course? Come on guys there are so many people on here basing decisions which cost huge amounts of money (the eagle jet/AMD/CAE course) and the only thing they take into account is what 2 friends said? There are threads on this section about the eagle jet programme and similar. Read them. The USA forum has a good thread on eagle jet also.
Also, unless you have been there and done it, don't give advice to other people on wether a programme is good or bad.
