fish Training school recommendation

I hope I do not publish the thread at a wrong place.
I hope friends in the forum could help to recommend some good fly training schools in Canada and U.S.
My condition now is my budget is only around 57,000USD including my training fees and cost of living. I would get PPL+Instrument+Multi engine+CPL and have to finish all these in one year. I'm from China, so maybe some schools do not recruit Chinese students.
Well, anyway, I hope all friends to recommand some schools for me fist and I will contact them soon and get the information from them. Looking forward to everybody's reply! Many thanks!

Check out Falcon Aviation acadamy in Atlanta, GA.

www.falconaviationacademy.com

Not a student there (yet) but had a look round their facilities at PDK a couple of months ago and they looked really good. Good support for international training

Any others?
I heard we should go to a small school where there are not a lot of students that may make our training faster! Right?

Look for your answer in the Philippines

I am Korean staying and working at one of the flying schools in the Philippines. You can have good flight training and able to have chance to work as FI here. Many forgein students are learning to fly from India, Korea, Malaysia. You can finish entire courses in 6-7 months even up to FI course. Within your budgets, it seems difficult to get trained in States cause other than flight training cost you must consider another expenses for living. It will cost you double the budget what you have. Hope this is good information for you.

There are many good flight schools in South Africa. Good value and excellent flying conditions. Try FTS (Flight Training Services) in Johannesburg or Flight Training College in George. (wwwflighttraining.co.za)
43 Airschool in Port Alfred and APTRAC in Port Elizabeth are also good as well as Cape Town Flight Training Center.
As with any school, never pay all your funds upfront and check with the CAA regarding the schools reputation. That applies to any country you chose.
Best of luck. It's a great career. You wont regret it.

Have a look at Stapleford (www.flysfc.com). They are probably the best modular school in the UK.
