Yes, AAPA does not have any C172 and some 25 Piper PA 28's

Honestpilot, I don’t think AAPA has 25 PA28’s, I think it’s more like around 14 – 16, and a few Seminoles too. And last I checked, they cannot train private students on C172’s, especially when they have a fleet of brand new PA28’s. Considering insurance and cross-hire conditions, this would not be cost effective. I will have to confirm this, but I think the Alpha students currently training there will have to do some kind of upset training on the C172, because the PA28 is not capable of doing what is required by the GCAA, however this is only one flight.
