hi guys, how are you all doing. I recently took a look @ what Ari-Ben has to offer and was very impressed. I decided to do a search on them online, but i came accross some issues that are of concern.
I came accross forums where they had nttn but bad things to say about Ari. Even saw a report on BBB.

Will present or graduate students please come forward and give me a bit more insight.

Thankz

I attended there as a student then instructor beginning July of 2002. I did extensive research prior to that, and found nothing of concern, particularly when you compare them to other flight schools. Great program, unmatchable price, great results!

There have been many international pilots go through there whom I know personally.

I am not sure where you found your information.

PM me if you wish.....
 
Ari Ben's "Good People".

If they weren't, I certainly wouldn't be running their advertising.

Call Ari-ben and you attorney.

Depending on what you J1 visa (student visa if I'm not mistaking) was approved, you may not even be illegible to go to a flight school (under some interpretation of the new TSA law)

Now, don't let me get you discourage, because I'm sure most flight school are not going to stop you (they want your business).

Working is completly separate, but you will most likely have to change your visa to be able to work as a flight instructor.
 
With M1 visa i can work 1 month for every 4 months of training which would be equal to 3 months for a yrs worth of training. For J1 i can work for 1 year after the program.
With F1 i can only work on campus and stay in the country for 4 yrs and then get a 1 year work experience visa.
