Do anyone know anything about this school? They are in Florida, is owned by Spaniards and they make the conversion to JAA in Spain, at Aerolink School. I'm interested in it so I would appreciate any comentaries about them, but not about more than two years ago, because before 2006 it was owned by an australian man, and I've allready heard about him.
Thank you

yes i would avoid them like the plague, a typical low cost not enough a/c and too many students US flight school. Been there done that and left after a 1week of sitting around waiting to get an a/c and having flown for only 5 hours.

Look elsewhere is my advice.. good luck

I was looking around the Florida jungle last week for a school. Poked my head in the door stood for ten minutes waiting for somebody to pitch up at reception.

After ten minutes nada so I left! Really didn't get any good impresssions of the place!

a friend of mine did not talk badly about it. of course it s not flightsafty but he said all in all it woks.I would like to know mome. for example which of their ailplanes is IFR?? it the pa28?

another friend of mine bought 100 h from them he said it was ok he rented 172sp and it was perfect!

Hi, people who went since it is owned by spaniards don't speak bad about it, because before that it was owned by a 'person' who nobody can hear speak about, maybe thats one reason because they are so cheaper at this moment, for example, I'm planning to do there the FAA-JAA whith 540 hours for 30.000€, but they told me that I must do the reservation soon, otherwise the cost will be 44.000€, ah, in the price is included TR for A320 or 737!, and after that I can hire 500 hours in B737 for 20.000, so: 30.000+20.000=50.000€, and in Spain I must pay 60.000€ for JAA with only 175 hours...
They offered me to go there and visit all the facilities and talk with other students to ask them if they do all they promise, I knew one person who went there for the same reason and came back very happy, in fact, he has started the course this month.
The conclusion for me is that they are cheap only for promotion reasons.
