I did all of my ratings with Steve and have gone on to become a B-767 pilot flying international long haul. I can tell you with absolute certainty that this is the place you want to do your training at. I watched a lot of classmates get "lost" at a bigger school when I went on to complete my 4 year degree (did it in 2 1/2 years thanks to Steve) so I have seen both sides of the coin. Steve did a great job of boiling things down for me and his airline background keeps the minutia under control. When you are shopping for flight schools the large shiny screens in that Cessna at the bigger schools look great and they will tell you that learning to fly "steam gauges" is a thing of the past, but it is not. There are a lot of jobs/airplanes out there that still get things done the old fashioned way and there was a study done by NASA and a major flight school that found that it is much easier to go from old to new than the other way around. (Maybe I've been unfortunate, but I have only flown 1 airplane in my life that had a true glass cockpit. The Boeing 767 and 757 do not.) Another thought when looking at those beautiful new screens is, "who's paying for them?" Early on, you just need to build hours, so do it as cheaply as you can. Do yourself another favor and pay for an experienced instructor who has the credentials and experience to guide you. "Learning," after all, is what you are trying to do, isn't it?
