High-quality flight school all around! I started my Private Pilot Certificate at Embry-Riddle but…read moreeventually switched to Epic Flight Academy to finish after hearing such positive remarks from different friends and pilots. I was able to easily maintain my college courses at Riddle while flying with Epic, so flexibility is possible. From dispatch and maintenance staff to Instructors and Team Leaders, every Epic employee exceeded my expectations in terms of a family friendly learning environment. The C-172S aircraft were all in excellent condition, equipped with G1000. The Epic ramp area is well maintained along with KEVB in its entirety, and you simply can't beat its beautiful location in terms of its Class D airspace. However, as a student veteran, I would have liked to see Epic Flight Academy accept VA benefits to allow student veterans to gain assistance in finishing the remaining flight ratings at Epic, but they do not at the moment. Overall, I would highly recommend Epic Flight Academy for obtaining your Private Pilot Certificate, or any other certificate or rating you wish to pursue.

If you plan on attending the aircraft maintenance school, DONT. This place should be renamed "Scam…read moreFlight Academy" because the quality of education is trash. Some of the instructors dont know whats going on and the others are just mindlessly droning on through powerpoint slide shows. I didnt want to pay 47,000$ to be bored to death, I paid for a quality education and quality instructors, which is what was advertised. ive been here for 5 months and all ive learned is that a place like this rips away your motivation to get into the aviation industry. Dont get me started on the housing department either. The same people that own epic own the apartments they use for student housing, one half is non students and the other half are students. The non students (for a two bedroom apartment NOT beachside and NOT in a good spot) pay 1600$ a month, so why is it that the students pay 3200$ a month for the exact same apartment split 4 ways. They cram 4 people in a 2 bedroom apartment and charge the students double. It doesn't take a genius to notice that this is a cash grab/scam. Fuck this place and fuck getting scammed. All the good reviews are for the flight school, for the pilots, anyone can fly a plane but how many people can fix them? Take care of your students and stop scamming them.

Flew down to Florida from Wisconsin to get my ASES in their DeHavilland Beaver. After about 5 hours…read moreof flying I had my new rating. Mike was a great instructor and Tripp was a great DPE. It is was a very casual yet professional experience which kept it low-stress. I am a relatively new pilot so was a bit apprehensive about doing this rating in the Beaver, but Tripp assured me that they have experience with low-time pilots and he didn't lie. If I am ever in the area again I would stop back just for a hangar chat anytime.

Overall I was not impressed and would not recommend Ryan Aviation. The main reason I took the…read morecourse with them was to learn to fly the Beaver DHC-2. At the end of the course I got few hours in the plane logged but cannot say I became proficient in it. One thing I did like a lot about them was the aircraft! They have beautiful and very well maintained airplanes. I flew the Beaver but they also had a nice amphibious Husky which I didn't fly. If I rated them based on this factor alone it would be solid 5*. The instruction was ok, not great. Water takeoffs, landings and taxi was covered, but I wish it wasn't as superficial. The bigger problem in my opinion is inadequate curriculum. The instructor tried to jam everything into 4 hours and of course it all was way too rushed. I've never seen the POH/AIM for the aircraft even though I asked for it multiple times. (By the way the explanation I received was it's because the airplane is so heavily STC'd that I wouldn't be able to understand the POH. I am an active CFI, commercial pilot, and instructor pilot with US Air Force CAP.) There's was no airwork done, not even the slow flight. Again I asked the owner about it and he argued that doing airwork would make it hard for him to compete with other schools that offer similar 2-days programs and since I'm not going to solo their aircraft why spend time on it. And speaking of 2 days, if you are a visiting pilot and want to take the 2 day course I suggest you plan to stay there at least for a week. The local weather patterns are bizarre, every morning there was a dense fog, thunderstorms in the afternoon. Obviously it's not Ryan Aviation's fault in any way but something to consider when planning your trip. Bottom line. I would give 5* for the equipment and maintenance, 3* for instruction, 1* for the training program. I will probably look for another school next time I fly seaplanes.

You probably will not find another school in Utah where all teachers are graduated and took TESOL classes. I took their TOEFL classes and I was able to get an amazing score in the exam AND be accepted into university (BYU). All of their classes are very useful and will help you be prepared to become a college student. I studied in another language school and I didn't have a good experience because the teachers were not as prepared as the ones who work at Selnate. Don't choose a school just because it's cheaper! If you take your education seriously, choose Selnate! They won't disappoint you!

I had the classes which were different from when I paid everything the president told me, and I experienced racial discrimination in an unprofessional teacher's classes. When I got health insurance from the school, I paid the most expensive one for covering everything, but I was so surprised when I got the insurance card because it covered nothing. I don't think all my payments worth it. For international students, please think twice before making your own decisions or sign everything in paper instead of verbal agreement!

RSV is a highly contagious respiratory virus that can cause bronchitis, pneumonia and hospitalization in children. Carly Caldwell, the owner of this establishment continued to charge me for lessons I wasn't receiving during my daughter's illness. I wrote a letter to stop payment, she then sent that letter to my bank in order to prevent reimbursement of services not received. Her and I even spoke by phone and although I thought we would reach a resolution, she never called me back. It's sad to me that my daughter was never able to finish and during a difficult time of illness with my child, Carly put an additional $180 in her own pocket as a result.

Lack of customer service. My kids have been going to this school for 7 months. We've been paying…read more$450 per month. We missed one scheduled session (two 15 minutes) and asked to make it up if they have a cancellation. They allowed to make up one, but told us their policy does not allow to make up the other. Lack of customer service is always a bad business judgment. A good business needs to have some flexibility in their policies and customer appreciation, especially that this was the only time during the past 7 months that we've missed. It doesn't cost them much to allow a make up during a cancellation because the coach is still in the pool. I have cancelled lessons for both kids because my policy is not to give business to a business that does not appreciate me as a customer.

I enjoyed the interview process and my family was very excited about the opportunity there! The principal said day one that he was "anal." I didn't really pay any mind to it at first but little by little I saw the controlling/manipulative side of the director. He has a my way or the highway mentality and it just didn't go well with my teaching style! He also came to observe on like my 3rd class!!! I've taught for over 25 years and never had a walk in observation unannounced in my 2nd week of classes!!! That was very tacky on his part. There were discipline problems that weren't addressed and continued to be a real hindrance to my work at this school. I got pretty sick and continued to arrive to teach and only received complaints from the principal, I was really sick! He'd write passive aggressive emails to me and I just realized that this school was not the place for me to teach/coach and bring my family! When I was told to leave the principal eerily left all the lights on at the school and said he'd be watching me on the school cameras as I went back to my classroom to remove my personal belongings!!! Weird experience there, wouldn't recommend the school for kids or for a teaching opportunity!! Not worth it!! Was very disappointed, the community there in Daytona beach is a bit off, people in general are NOT friendly and everyone keeps to themselves, was a very odd time for me!!
