How Important Is It for a Flight Training Academy to Be in Business Long Time?

 

Just as in most organizations, the longest you are involved with it, the better you become.  And the longer you are operating as an organization — business or academy — the more stable you are: financially, managerially, academically, etc.

 

So, yes, it is important to consider how long a flight training academy has been in the business of training student pilots when you are selecting a school.  The longer, the better, as it means that students are pleased with the quality of their training and continue to recommend the school to others. It means the school does a good job maintaining their training fleet; it means the instructors are highly competent, and it means the academy has stability overall.
