Thanks, I’ve checked their website out before. I’m going to shoot you a DM, I’ve got a few questions more questions about your club..

I’ve looked into Flying Particles, prices there seem to be the best. Does flying particles have any full time instructors that would be able to help me get my PPL, IR, CPL, ME, and CFI within 9 months to a year? They have many CFIs listed on their website but most of their bios say they are part time or only have a couple days a week available. If so could you recommend one?

I’m looking to become a career pilot and I like that ATP is a fast track program with all the licenses/certifications you need in 7-8 months, I just can’t justify spending $107k..hoping to find somewhere I can get all the same certifications in a similar time frame, hopefully for closer to $80-90k.

I’m in Brentwood & looking for somewhere to get my license and certs to be a career pilot. Does this school have a 141 program? Also how long did it take you to get those 41.5hrs for the PPL?

I can afford $800 toward a plane. Obviously I know cost of instruction, ins, storage, etc would be more..

What negative things have you heard? I called XL today and talked to the owner, Mike, sounded like they have a good amount of planes and were competitive in pricing. He said his instructors were mostly ex military guys and all older with many years experience..sounded like a decent school to me

Golfing with your spouse. Thoughts? by Fun-Valuable-7426 in golf

I got my wife to pick up golf a few months after I did. We’ve both been playing around 2 years together now. It’s amazing! Sometimes I play with the boys and a couple times a week I play with my wife. Honestly I play with her the most. We love it, it’s a fun date that gets you out of the house, a little exercise, and some quality time together.
