More Questions to Ask When Deciding on a Flight School (part 2)

Friday, October 12, 2012
 

There are so many things to think about and questions to ask when choosing a flight school. It is important to have as much information as you can, when making such an important career decision. At Phoenix East Aviation, we welcome your questions!. We pride ourselves on being one of the very best pilot training academies in the world and look forward to telling you about Phoenix East Aviation and what makes your training here superior.

Continuing the earlier blog on this topic, we’ll look at more questions and answers regarding why Phoenix East Aviation is the best choice for you.

Graduates to Hire: Since 1972, PEA has professionally trained students for pilot careers in the airline industry worldwide. Many flight schools will help their students receive a pilot’s license, but with our top notch training, instructors, aircraft and history, our goal and commitment is to help you obtain a career flying for airlines, charter companies, governments and/or corporations around the world.   

Weather: In Daytona Beach, Florida, flying  is possible almost every day of the year. Can you say this about the location of most  other flight training academies? Year-round excellent weather allows quicker completion of training and more available time for you to fly.

Aircraft used for Training: When choosing a pilot school, it is also important to consider the quality and age of the aircraft in which you will be training. Are they old or older? That means you can expect they will be “down,” and not available for flying because of  maintenance issues.  

At Phoenix East Aviation, the training fleet is made up of over 35 new and late model Cessna C-172 and Diamond DA-42 aircraft, along with a Decathlon 8KCAB for upset recovery safety training. Our fleet is equpped with the latest in navigation equipment, which allows smoother transition when being hired as a professional pilot for jet and larger aircraft.

My name is Jason Prestigiacomo and I’m a First Officer for United Express Airlines, operated by Air Wisconsin Airlines. I’m currently based in Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport flying the CRJ. This assignment was made easier because of the flight training I received at Phoenix East Aviation, Daytona Beach, Florida. Career instructors like other flight schools do not run the flight department at PEA. Former airline pilots run it. These pilots have built up thousands of hours in some of the world’s largest and most advanced airliners and know first hand how to make the transition into the airline industry. All of the training is based upon airline standards, which makes things much easier when you step into your first airline or corporate job.
 
I looked into other flight schools and selected PEA because of their laid-back operation and job placement statistics. I attained all of my certificates and ratings at PEA, and then took a job with them as a Flight Instructor in 2001. If your goal is to become a Boeing 747 Captain or just a weekend pilot, Phoenix East Aviation is the school for you.
