Question Large vs small flying schools

Dear friends,

I am finaly about to give the first step! Aleluia!!!

The question here is about money really and what might result from money driven decisions.

I intend to do my professional training with SFC as their philosophy fits best with my own.

Nevertheless, their PPL is still more then a £1000 more expensive compared with other smaller flying schools.

For example, Skyline has a complete PPL package with lots of goodies included for less then £4000. Anyone has any comments about this school? It seems that they have quite e good number of aircraft for the size of the school!

Is this decision going to influence somehow getting an airline job? Is it really worth to pay the extra £1000? £1000 is a lot of flying for the hour building!!

If I don't do the PPL with SFC what are the chances of working for them as a flying instructor? Anyone know about any rumours on this one?

All your comments and suggestions are much appreciated!

Thanks

TheNavigator
