Orlando Hours Building

Hi Guys and girls
I am going to Orlando, Florida in July for a few weeks holiday and would like to build some hours while there. Accommodation is not a problem. Can anybody recommend a good school there that provide good value for money self hire? I have completed the relevant paperwork and sent to the FAA as regards my licence. Opinions from anybody who has past experience at Orlando schools would be greatly appreciated.

MM

Euro American School of Aviation

they are the best for value for money. not the greatest place in the past for training, but your not getting any training.

the price are good. thats why you will be flying to america to fly because of the pirce.

any questions on this area feel free to message me. I did my hour building here.

EASA aka Ormond Beach Aviation is in Ormond Beach....
Not even close to Orlando and remember you get what you pay for.
If you're in the Orlando area, Air Orlando hands down.

Remember your not doing any training there. Its not the greatest/ best school for flight training but they will give you a PPL tho, which is what you set out to do in the minimum hours.

Its cheap flying, which you are after.
