Philadelphia area flight training?

[Ryans Dad]

I know there are 1 or 2 threads on this, but they are a few years old so I thought I'd ask again...

Can anyone recommend a good flight school in the Philly area? I'd be looking to start off with a PPL, and then add the IR and ME shortly after.

Right now, I've been looking at MCA (Wings Field) and Hortman (NE Phila Airport).

I currently live about 30 seconds drive time from NE Philly airport, but I'd like to base my choice of flight school on more than distance from my house.

Anyone have any experience with either of these places, or any others in the area?

I used to rent out of Hortman when I lived in the Philly area. Its a nice flight school, large selection of aircraft, pretty good prices (although I see they just raised them according to their website). You'll hear many good things about them from people. Good location too, nice to have a towered field to work out of.
