European Flight Training or Skymates Inc.
 
I wish to pursue the professional pilot course and I am puzzled of which one to choose?
Please let me know about your opinions or are their other schools with better flight time etc. ?

Which one shall I attend?

Search on this forum and then you'll get a lot of post about the schools. If you wish to have more information, then, ask a specific question.

May I know how good Eft are? Is their Airline Pilot Programme good?

How good is their training?

navin,
please understand that the term "good" is too general. Something could be "good" for me but not for you.
This thread is not going anywhere.
You have to understand that if you search on pprune or any other aviation forum, you'll find a LOT of information that could be useful to help you to choose the flight school.
Then if you'll still have some doubt, you could ask for a PARTICULAR question (for example: "what's the difference to fly a C172 with G1000 or without during the Instrument rating course?" So you could understand if it will be better for you to attend a school that has that kind of planes or not.)
I hope I have been helping you.

The question you should really be asking is, with no chance of a job on completion, should I start flight training now?

The answer is no.

I would visit both schools and then decide, i did that and there was a clear winner.
Its a lot of money and time you will be investing, and once you start training its usually too late to go back.
Look at the experience level of the instructors as at some schools they are mainly low hour time builders waiting to move on, you can usually tell if that`s the case if they offer cfi courses with the possibility of a job after training even though i`d like to make clear that some very good instructors i`ve met were low hours cfi`s, also look at the quality of the aircraft, and the facilities at the schools, you will soon see the difference.

Good luck

Have you narrowed it to these two schools or are you looking at any other options?

Navin check your inbox.
I'm also looking forward in doing my training from either of Aviator's branches.
Do you wish to obtain a JAA License & fly in Europe ? You have work/stay permit in Europe ?

navin 2nd Dec 2009 02:29

first of all Thanks for the help buddy
may mail is [email protected]

Which school are you going to attend?

Alexsky 2nd Dec 2009 11:17

in Europe
 
If it does matter to study in Europe as well as money required to get the ATPL, then check Avioservice - there you can achieve your goal for around 30.000Eur.
If European license isn't required, then go to USA!
If money doesn't matter - then to one of best English schools (BTW., Avioservice ATPL ground training provided by Oxford Aviation Academy).
