I got some more info on this school, and it sounds like a great deal, I'll post some of the email I got, and I have a question for everyone also...
"The $26,411 is based on FAA minimums and therefore is an estimated cost.. The Advanced course consists of 77.5 hours in a 152, 75.0 hours in a 172, 28.5 hours in a Complex (172RG), 12.0 hours in a Multi-Engine (Piper Seminole), 13.0 hours in a AST-300 Multi-Engine Ground Trainer, 133.0 hours of dual flight training and 242 hours of ground school. If you got your MEI, you
would have around 27 hours of Multi-Engine time. I spoke with the person who does our student accounts and she said normally
a student would go over the cost by about $2,000-$3,000, some less, some more, but that is the average. "
The question I have is, does the lack of ME time that you would get by going here be a problem down the road? From the looks of the other schools, you would finish with about 55 hours ME time at FSI, and 125 at Pan Am (with the MERF program). I am just curious if the more ME time you get at the other schools really worth the extra cost?
