Re: Diamond Flight Centre Experience

In regards to DFC, Bill is a great guy with a great team. You must keep in mind here that they are not totally in the business of off the street training. If that's what you're looking for then you'll pay a little more. DFC is set up with the Western University Pilot Program which is a professional...

Re: Is this what flight training has come too?

It sounds like a scam/fraud operation and should probably be reported to the police: http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/scams-fraudes/rep-sig-eng.htm Either that or we should all get together with pitchforks and run them out of town :evil: Again, these guys have been running for a few years now and we all k...

Re: Is this what flight training has come too?

While I agree that schools like this be reported and put out of business, especially if they are under the Private Career College Act - see if this helps the students - http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/general/new.html, and search here and see if the school in question is listed - http://www.edu.gov.on...
