Question In terms of flight schools, have you heard of jet university? and if yes, what do you think of it?
Also how does it compare to ATP?
Answer I have heard just little about Jet Unuiversity, I have checked their web site, and what they offering if you see video is an written guarantee that after completation of training you will have an F/O pilot job with an airline. That is really good. Here is the web site http://www.jetuniversity.com/home.html
On the other side I have heard a lot about ATP. They have a few centers that I have visited. One particulary in Riverside. You see good side with ATP is an excellent training facility for small amount of money. But they are really expecting from you to be on the top of things. They do not have an structured ground training before an flight lesson, meaning you have to study really hard in oredr to catch up with material that you are covering. there is none guarantee that you will get any kind of job at the end of training. You have to understand their job is only to train you to get license and rating and nothing else.
In comparation between two of them in my humble opinion, you will benefit more if you are choose the Jet University, and here is the reasons: They do provide full training in 9 months as they claim on web site, they do have 56 different type rating and training programs for those airplanes, you will be in an structured training environment where you know what kind of schedule will happen in advance, meaning today, we have to cover, aerodynamics of slow fligt on ground, we have to elaborate, demonstrate knowledge and applicability, and finally next lesson later today ill be practical application in slow flight and contralability of airplane in slow flight etc. You got picture. Finally I think the an sigificant factor is written guarantee that give you an advetage that you will be hired by an airline at the end of your training.
