Danger mmm...

If I can give you one bit of advice, do not pay for a mecir or anything there after with all the doe up front. If you dont like them or their style your stuck there.and you wouldn't be the first that thought that about this company
Dont forget you are the customer ! newbees seem to forget this.
Grog frog .what do you think they will say ,.. There a business.

Aussie,

If you spent half as much time on the phone as you do typing crap questions on this web site you may have an instrument rating or job by now.

Good luck.....

You'll need it

I Did my IFR rating with him in 1994 when he used to work with TK. He did numerous renewals for me until I became involved with my current companys check and training regime.

Highly recommended was a pleasure doing the rating with him. He is the ultimate professional, does not make you feel like a twit and has a very dry sense of humour, he has notthing to prove and just imparts his experience in a calm manner.

Capt to be, Ace4bars was dumped by his girlfriend quite some time ago. She has moved on and is currently flying a PT6 powered Gazelle out of a busy GAAP airport on the west coast. Top chick.
