Hi all, School B gave me a price breakdown. 40 hrs dual at 232/hr = 9,300 40 hrs solo at 150/hr = 6,000 10 hrs ground at 55/hr = 550 So turns out it does include some time building I guess.

At my college, I could’ve majored in Professional Aviation, but I would still have to pay tuition + all of flight training because it’s considered “lab fees”. The only benefit of majoring in aviation is I would get a 500 hour ATP reduction and my school’s name attached to my aviation degree...

If I'm being completely honest, I'm not sure. I usually tell people that I want to get all certificates possible and see what opportunities come up. Flying has been my biggest passion since I could walk, so I would love to fly for a living, fly as a side gig, or have a career where I can fly...

Hi all! Thanks for the replies. I plan to continue my training to ATP. I've heard good things about the main CFI at school B, know nothing about the CFI's at school A since they don't even open for business until Aug 1. Not sure about their instruction style, but I've heard good things...

I am trying to decide between 2 schools to pursue my Instrument Rating at. I'm planning to train Part 61, and plan to fly about 3 times a week. I also plan to complete my instrument written before starting my IFR training, so that should cut down on some of the cost. Below is the price that each...

I believe that they were doing maintenence on the pipes, and the plane happened to crash where they dug all of the ground up.

I do understand what you’re saying. A lot of my decision also had to do with the price Baylor was charging for their professional aviation program. We are saving upwards of 40-50k by doing my training on the side. Also, they struggle with aircraft availability. If we’re going to pay all that...

Hey Mike! So I was actually going to major in Baylor's Aviation program until I decided that if crap hits the fan and I can't get a medical anymore, I wouldn't have much to fall back on. Therefore, I am getting a business degree from Baylor basically as a Plan B. With that being said, I do have...

Looks like I'd need 100 hours of tailwheel time to be a tow pilot according to their website.

I'll be attending Baylor University in Waco, Texas. 2 hours south of Dallas, 1 1/2 hours north of Austin.

Hello all! I'm an 18 year old newly ticketed private pilot. I move into college in 4 weeks. Originally I had planned to complete my instrument rating before school started, but getting my PPL took longer than expected due to many different reasons. I do want to fly as a career so obviously I...

Thank you all for the congratulations! The plane I was in did indeed have autopilot, looking back I suppose that would've been the best thing to do but I wasn't exactly thinking straight during that time LOL. My thoughts..."Don't do it. Don't do it. Keep it in. Oh crap here it comes!" Yes...

Title says it all. Had my private checkride this morning and the unusual attitudes got to me, so I gave him flight controls and took 3 minutes to puke in a bag. Finished puking, tied a knot in the bag, then threw it in the back and continued with the ride like nothing happened. Thought I'd...

Hey everyone, came across this today and wanted some thoughts on this as I am currently finishing up my PPL with the hopes of an ATP someday. This almost seems too good to be true, to be able to skip the regionals. http://unitedcpp.com/
