Flight Safety Academy is owned by Flight Safety International...you don't need a name change.
When Delta airlines purchased COMAIR, they got the school as a bonus. So Delta Airlines now owns COMAIR Aviation Academy and the name change was done to reflect that. Now I really don't understand what is the problem with that since some of you guys don't seem to get it. So get over it....
The "Connection" part of the name is there since our instructors are GUARANTEED an interview with the Delta Connection carriers. Something that even FLight Safety don't have and cannot claim in their ads ( or do you really belive that if they had that edge they would not state it in their ads?)
Talk to you later...

I know who owns your company. Berkshire Hathaway owns FSI, but that doesn't mean we get free ice cream at Dairy Queen (another Berkshire Hathaway company). Corporate ownership means nothing because they are separate organizations. Of course, the financial situation of the parent company does matter, lest ye be sold off as an asset when hard times come along. (Berkshire Hathaway is far more stable than Delta Airlines...)
Hear that prospective students? Don't buy Comair Academy's lines! Do your research, visit the schools, and make an informed decision! If you decide to go to Comair after you have real information, then by all means do so.
Regarding the interviews, Doug is correct, anyone can get an interview. What good is an interview though if you aren't prepared for it, or if the company isn't hiring?
FSI doesn't guarantee interviews because it is an underhanded marketing ploy, and FSI doesn't stoop to that level. It is somewhat frustrating to watch companies like yours get an increase in enrollment due to unethical marketing practices, but if you can look at yourself in the mirror that's your business.
