Choosing a state for private (FAA)
 
Good day!

I would like to ask if anyone can recommend a state in the USA to do private and instrument courses. Aside from California and Florida which are known for weather, where else could I start my training?

Thanks. :}

Texas
 
I did my PPL in Texas...near Dallas.There are plenty of schools with good teaching staff, good maintained a/c and nice environment.
If you want more details about the school just PM me.

Good luck!:ok:

Arizona has excellent year-round weather. It's a little hot in the summer but you can still fly in the mornings. Lufthansa, Oxford, and Sabena have flight training in Arizona thanks to the ability to conduct year-round training.

I received my private in Tucson, PM me if you have any questions.

I'd second Arizona - most downright pleasant flying I've done in the USA was there. I can't speak for Tucson, but the facilities at Prescott were good.
