What are some good aviation schools?
Has anyone heard of National Pilot Academy? I just found it on the internet yesterday and it has locations in nevada, utah, and arizona. It teaches you in a faster pace so you can get your license sooner and they help you with everything like financial aid and finding an apartment and get you good airline jobs or any jobs in aviation. I was just wondering if anyone heard of them or ever went there, I would like your input on them.

- I think your best bet is to join the army all the above is taken care of and you will be able to get your license for free
- Never heard of NPA. Embry Riddle,one of the best.Spartan school of Aeronautics in Tulsa Ok.That school been around snce WW2. Go For it.
- my son has applied at Spartan, which is in OK Embry Riddle, which is in FLA and AZ. both from what I've heard are good.
- I have never heard of the National Pilot Academy, but there are many other great schools out there. As said before Embry-Riddle is good, University of North Dakota has a great program. Here is a link to a page that has a listing of colleges and universities that have aviation programs. http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/AERO/edulist.htm
- I agree with Boogieman. Join the Air Force / Navy / Army. I know for a fact they are recruiting. Not only do they pay for it all but you get to fly some really cool a/c. I have 11 different a/c types in my log book (although several are civilian). Good luck in your career.
- There are lots there is almost one Aviation school in every state but some of the best are: Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Purdue Western Michigan University Eastern Michigan University Florida Institute of Technology University of North Dakota (John D. Orgard School of Aeronautics) Kansas State Spartan School of Aeronautics If you are just looking to finish ratings but not get a degree: Mesa Westwind Flight Safety As far as the National Pilot Academy I have never heard of them, but there are lots of reputable people out there, and I assume that they offer only flight ratings and no degree. Best thing to do is call them and ask them about their company, they are usually very helpful.
- first find what there pass rating is and if they have any type o job placement. then talk to there staff if you don't feel safe don't go there. find out how long have they been in business and a safety record what is theirs?
