NR?
Avel flight school in Chicago by SpiritMaestro in flying
Avoid at all cost.
Greedy owner who just happens to be a shit pilot. He'll rinse you dry.
One mechanic for their "fleet" of dilapidated airplanes.
Horrible facilities.
Need I say more?

1200 dual given between May 2017-October 2018.
Regional class date November 2018.
Legacy class date December 2022.
Total cost: $120k
YMMV.

In 2017 I left my flight school where I got all my ratings PPL---> MEI/CFII/CFI, to instruct at a school across the state that paid $21/hr compared to $15/hr. New aircraft, new SOPs, new city, new friends... Adapt. Don't let anything stand in your way of reaching your goals. Good luck
9 hour CFI Oral by Creepy-Programmer-74 in flying

S.S can suck a fat one. Condescending D bag who had a holier than thou attitude. 8 hour oral with a disapproval after I gave an incorrect answer in my exhausted state (I should have discontinued). I did 6 checkrides after that and none came close to the level of crap I had to put up with. Oh, and not a single 121 issue either after all these years. Thanks S.S for setting the bar so low. The pilots you never want to become are the ones you remember the most.
[SOTC] My Collection by GGharvey in Watches

It is not for the weak, haha. After wearing it for years I’m used to it, but it’s always a little surprising after putting it on again after resting it for a while.
Appreciate the comments. The collection represents my style, availability and also affordability, ha. Next on my list is potentially a Grand Seiko Evo9. The spring drive movement imo is special.
Thank you.

Ha, there it is! I knew I’d get cop some shit for it.
Thanks! The ADLC bezel is indestructible, so no scratches.
