I am planning a trip to US with a friend of mine next year. He is going there to do his PPL(A), I want to build hours. At the moment we are looking for a cheap flight school offering both - flight instructing and hour building, preferably in Cessna 150/152.
The school does not have to be located in California or Florida as I have heard that the prices are a little higher in popular states.
Do you know any place meeting our requirements?
The two are mutually exclusive.
To train you need a M1 visa as a minimum and a school that can accommodate a foreign student.
Hour building you do not need such a school and could probably pay a lower rental fee at a regular Part 61 Flight School who do not have to worry about foreign students and hence potentially lower cost.
