Oregon or Florida ?
 
Hi there !

I'm planning to study flying in the US hopefully this April.

I was pretty set on studying in Oregon, Hillsboro Aero Academy. However after talking to several American Pilots and reading forums, I have learned their number 1 concern: weather. Majority of them would suggest Florida. Then also mentioned it's too expensive in California.

Can anyone give more insight re: Oregon weather and how it'll affect my training ? Hoping to finish PPL thru CFI within 1 year of full time training.


As for Florida, I have my eyes on Florida Flyers. I would love Flight Safety but it's way too expensive.

Not easy to decide as I won't be able to check the schools before enrolling.

Thanks for the help !
