Reviews
Accelerated Flight Training Center is rated 3.9 based on 7 reviews
Flying IFR with these folks really opened my eyes to flying. The level of knowledge Is really something. 10 days and check ride day 11. The examiner was awesome and made it feel laid back. Talk to these guys if you are serious about getting your rating Tom
I got my private here in 2013. The AFT crew and the Airflite crew are all awesome. Finished up my private in 24 days with a day off in between to take care of some business . These guys know what they are doing and they get it done on time. In my experience looking through these reviews, people who complain always complain no matter what you give them. I had a great experience here and would come back no problem .
Being a student at AFTC I´ve had the privilege of acquiring an IFR rating, and a commercial license in a relatively short amount of time, now working towards a multi-engine commercial add on and a CFI license I can say that the level of knowledge, experience and training received at this school is outstanding. If you have an opportunity to train at this school don´t hesitate. Training in a very comfortable environment as well as in an accelerated program isn´t easy but somehow they pulled it off.
Great experience and attention to detail too. Got my IFR in 10 days and couldn´t be happier Michael
I went in to do my Instrument rating with them. I wanted to use a G1000 and they said no problem. When I showed up for my flight no aircraft to be found. They don´t even have any aircraft and barrow them from other flight schools. Not only do they borrow they make you pay a higher rate! Then they wanted me to pay up front the full amount for the training. Brought out some contract that was a total scam! Make sure to read through the whole contract! I saw the aircraft they were going to do my training in and looked up the school written on the aircraft. The school written on the aircraft had no problem finishing me up and for a better price! TOTAL SCAM
The owners of this school post all over the internet with fake accounts, beware! I was scammed by these people and they took a lot of money from me. I put money up front and they suddenly changed the amount needed and charged me with hidden fee´s for everything. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
I got my Private Pilot with these guys many years ago. Very relaxed and laid back attitude. I was worried about a lot of stuff as students usually are, but they did a great job putting me at ease. Passed on the first attempt and am stocked.
