I'm part of a group of 13 OAT students that have been in Tyler, Texas for 69 days now and there have been 19 days with no flying due to bad weather. The worst case in our group has only flown 35 hours. Only one person is due to finish on time.

Of course, no one can help bad weather but guarantees of good instructor/student ratios and enough aircraft and examiners should be kept. I will report back when the improvements that we have asked for time and time again have been made but until then, I cannot recommend Tyler as a good 'fair-weather base' option.
