I had some of my hrs in C-152s and C-172s at a flight school in
California. Before I went to them I searched the web with google and
mailed every flight school I could find. Most of them answered, but
honestly from most of them who answered I got the impression that the
main priority is my money. That's one reason I want to avoid flight
schools as much as possible and go with an independent instructor
instead.
