[hiayushman]

Hey! :cool:

I know there are plenty of old posts regarding the same and been through many of them but still, i couldnt help it to post my problem here! I really need your help to make me decide which school i really can go for...

I have shortlisted few schools below, which i found (thanks to the humble members of pprune and others) to be the best ones around in SA.

1. 43 Air School (43airschool.com)
2. SAFTA (safta.co.za)
3. APTRAC (aptrac.com)
4. ALGOA (algoafc.co.za)
5. FTS (fts.co.za)
6. Progres Flight Academy (flightacademy.co.za)


I would be greatly thankful, if you could take out a minute or two and tell me which of them is i should go for and why...

Thanks,
hiayushman

I train at Algoa and personally don't have much bad to say about it, apart from the PE weather which can keep you on the ground a lot of the time. Aptrac is next door, under new ownership and is apparently a good place to be as well having just bought in a load of C152's. Avoid Progress though, unless you have your own accomodation because theres is pretty feral and it isn't in the best location a long way out of the city.
