1)
South Edmonton
17
Male
2) Was enrolled at cooking lake for ground school. Learnt nothing, instructors boring and not excited to teach. Did 2 flights there and kinda realized that they only really teach the practical aspect of flying. Switched to Edmonton Flying Club (redid ground school and passed my written exam in flying colors), best decision of my life. Instructors are amazing. They drill theory into your head while teaching you the practical aspect of flying. The CFI Sophia is amazing, the manager Gerald is amazing and my instructor John is not only my instructor but my I consider him to be one of my close friends.
3) Plane Availability (Edmonton Flying Club is hands down the most expensive flight school in Edmonton but they have 4 G1000 C172s and about to get another by end of April). Amount of Instructors. Teaching style. I wanted a school to teach both theory and practical.
4) RESP for everything including PPL, Goverment funding after PPL.
5) Online research, went in person
Note: I finished my PPL and am going to a Aviation University out east to finish the rest (Simply because of the partnership with airlines, not saying you can't get to airlines without them just my path). If in Edmonton hit me up in PMs and I can maybe take you up and show you around the club. A

1)Which demographics do you fall under?
54 M Ontario
2)If you are not currently enrolled...google, forums, past students
3)What is most important to you when choosing a flight school? reputation would be king/cost a second factor
4)What type of funding are you aware of that is currently available to you? none
5)How did you choose your school?What flight schools are you aware of? n/a
Taking private lessons/private aircraft, always, from PPL to CPL. PPL Ground school was one of two local schools, at the time, based on talking to both of them. CPL was on line as not available locally. Both schools are gone.
Not sure that helps your survey as not the norm, I don't think, for your target audience
