Flight School Suggestions pls?
Posted by AeroNauticAce@reddit | flying | View on Reddit | 6 comments
I did as much research as I could and found that there are mainly two options.
- Crystal Air aviation
- Hixson Aviation Flying club
Both are located at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport.
I don't know if there's any third option, if you guys could suggest something that would be helpful.
Also looking to connect with current students and instructors that go to any of the flight schools here to know your experience and opinions.
One last thing that would be helpful is of anyone know of any job openings at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport or nearby. I have a 4 year foreign bachelor's degree in IT and just moved to the US. ANY kind of job if fine for now.
Thanks in advance.

Might be worth seeing if there’s anything at Collegedale. You’ll burn a fair amount of extra money on the ground at CHA.

I'm already doing online ground school using sportys. That's enough for ground school right?

For Part 61, absolutely - there's no requirement for any kind of formal ground school, or any specific learning method. All that matters is that you learn the material, get an endorsement to take the written test, and pass the written test. My "ground school" consisted solely of reading on my own and discussing concepts with my CFI.

Good idea to go to the flight schools and talk to them, see which one you like more.

It looks like you're asking about getting a college degree.
A degree never hurts, get one if you can afford it. Whether it is required today or not, it may be required tomorrow. And the degree can be in anything, the major isn't that important.
Please read our FAQ, which has a ton of information and wisdom about becoming a pilot, including advice on college.
