Pros
Greeted quickly, good location, clean bathroom |
Cons
Planes are death traps, over used. Too many students, too little aircraft and maintenance. |
My Review of Tailwheels Etc.:
Obviously overworked school. Instructors seem like they don't know lift from that feeling when you think your fart is gonna propel you off the toilet.
The planes aren't even planes. More like overused bolt buckets that aren't even shaped like planes anymore (ok, well, maybe shaped like them, but you get the idea). I understand the planes are used a lot, when I brought it up to them (politely and very briefly, mind you I am not a jerk) they just said something like "Oh yeah they're used some several thousand hours per month blah blah". They take nothing seriously here, not even your life.
Just... don't risk it here if you value your wallet and life.

My Review of Tailwheels Etc.:
Very surprised with my experience at Tailwheels.
Called and talked to julie / jessie (863-660-7833),
they promised a private pilot in 2 weeks for a flat rate.
Everything was covered examiner, books, fees, fuel,etc
I was sceptical but 2weeks and 2days(weather) later i had my liscence.
I now swear by tailwheels, do not waste time and money at any other school.
They originated the 2 week accelerated program and they are awesome at it.
