recognized and flying clubs to avoid in the philippines.

hey guys,
i trained and flown in the philippines.the flying clubs that are recognized are omni,FAST,AAA and Aviatour,but then again avaitour is kinda slow with thier paperwork.Clark aviation has a high standard+links to the airlines.i had a few fellow instructors who joined as instructors in clark just so they cud get into the airline.

flying clubs u must avoid are.AMA also known as AMA international aviation academy.they have no system or management.they are practically a mess.the aircrafts are old.and the ones that are running dont have proper papers.
the staff involved will make hell..so stay away from this place.
aero international ,strike wing,and any of the small flying clubs there.
if you are not from the philippines i suggest you go there and personally check all the flying clubs in your list.you may spend an extra ticket.but its better than losing thousands of dollars like i did.
as soon as you get your cpl done try and do your instructors with the flyin club as long as they are assuring you a job after the FI course.
