Choosing a Flight School
I figure one of my first tasks now that I have decided I want to earn my private pilot's license is picking a flight school. This is a harder decision than I thought it might be. It is kind of like buying a car since it is an expensive decision and a long term one.
I found a couple of resources helpful in researching how to make this decision. The first was How to Choose the Right Flight School by StudentPilot.com. I also found this article from the Americn School of Aviation helpful.
Based on these articles I have narrowed my search down to two schools:
Blue Ash Aviation - at an uncontrolled airport
Franklin Aviation - at a busy controlled airport
In the coming days I plan on visiting both facilities and determing which is a better fit. I will keep you posted.
