as a spartan alumini, i rate spartan on a scale of 4 out of 10. i went to spartan to do flight training, but my advisor told me that if i did a tech program before, than i would not have to pay 2k up front, and automatically get enrolled into the flight program. turns out once i finished my tech program i did not automatically get enrolled into the flight program and i had to pay money upfront. than once i got into the flight program, i was not satisfied with the cfi's. half the time my cfi would cancel the flight or not schedule me down. also my cfi's would be 10-15 min late all the time. i guess that is the way they do business at the school. another funny thing, i got no-showed for canceling a flight due to storms in the Tulsa area. my flight instructor i had at the time said that the weather was good-flying wx for a c-152! So if you are thinking about going to this school for flight training, I would seriously, seriously think twice. If you are a person that would spend $175/2hr block for a cfi to to be late for a lesson, feel free. has anyone been in the same situation with a school or spartan? if anyone has any more questions about spartan feel free to ask! they say are in the tope 3 schools in the world??? if you go to any website, they are not even mentioned or if so they are not top 3. ive spoken to many pilots...ual, nw, skywest, aa. most of them never heard spartan. the few that did had negative comments. I had a job interview for Mesaba for a tech job, the 3 company mangers never heard of spartan and wondered what kind of school was it. Well thanks for my review, and take it seriously please..no joke!
