PanAm for training?

PanAm does not train pilots, it merely exchanges money for a license. Somewhere in your future plans, you will need to conduct a proficiency check and your examiner will have probably heard of the paper exchange program at PanAm. You will fully deserve the ensuing thrashing the sim examiner will give you for insulting him / her due to the lack of skill training that was not included in PanAm's paper exchange program.

The majority of the Sim people that work there are part-timers...not full time employees. The get paid by processing sim time and not the quality of the product, I.E., your abilities. The examiner gets a very large fee for watching you make an idiot of yourself in the sim (due to poor instruction) and is quite happy to give you a piece of paper that you will take back home to your Country where he / she will not be responsible for your actions when the flight and voice recorder detail your actions during the accident investigation.

If you are truly desiring a professional career in this vocation, then get the proper education that you need to survive...it is not going to found at PanAm's paper academy.
