Hi Guys,
Just wanted to get your thoughts on US flight schools that offer :-
- International student training
- NOT on the SEVIS list directly
- Claim to be a European company under an umbrella company that IS on the SEVIS list.
If working under an umbrella company is legal, and alll instructors are FAA registered, is there anything else which needs to be put in writing prior to enrolling in a training course?
A lot of these schools look for stage payments of 10k & 20k.... there doesn't seem to be a way around that, I would prefer not to handover that much at a time.... but what can you do?
Your advice is appreciated...
