Looking for multi-engine aircraft in the Southwest to FL

[blue58]

Hi all,
I already hold my CMEL, now looking to complete my ATP requirements. I need to fly 8 more hours asap. I have time in the Duchess and Commanche. Any MEI looking to build time and willing to fly with me or other interested pilots who know of an aircraft we can use please let me know asap. I can fly to other destinations as well.

I am interested to do MEI program with this school.

Initially, they replied me. But, not anymore.

I tried to access Lakes Area Aviation facebook page but I can't access. Strange.

He's still around and training lots of people. Try contacting him again.

I have just checked the pricing.
Now, it is more than $300/hr.

Here's an update for Lakes Area Aviation (Little Falls, MN 56345). Reply from Jake Heffron.

Piper Apache ($345/hr aircraft + $50/hr instructional) $395/hr for dual
Cessna 172 ($145/hr aircraft + $40/hr instructional) $185/hr for dual

I hate to say, it is one of the most expensive training schools in Minnesota!

I just checked its website.
$325/hr wet (including instructor)

I hope I can find something cheaper than this.

No clue. Contact Jake. I'm not associated with them in any way, just a satisfied customer

I have contacted Lakes Area Aviation since last year, 2022.

I was at Minneapolis earlier this month (October 2023) and contacted them.
I thought of visiting the flight school but no reply at all!

Silly flight school! Not entertaining to my email and Facebook messenger!
Poor customer service and I do not recommend this school!

That’s odd. I’ve never had that problem
