Recommendations for accelerated instrument training NYC area

Hi xxx (you didn't give a name)

Slight sarcasm intended, but this brings to mind a sign which I've
often seen in Automotive and TV/Radio repair shops...

Quick
Cheap
Good
---------
Pick two
---------
A good job quick won't be cheap
A good job cheap won't be quick
A quick job cheap won't be good

And you are in one of the highest cost areas in the nation...

Having said that...
I am a ~100 hr pilot currently working on my IA at American Flyers in
Cleveland. I will be looking at ~$9500 when finished, but it IS
QUICK and it IS GOOD.

I am using Part 141 'cuz GI Bill reimburses me 60%...and 141 tng tends
to be expensive. However, AF also do accelerated part 61 tng...and if
you already have your 50 hrs X-C...so much the better...and it will
cost you a lot less! Don't balk at the rates until you do the math!
These guys will work with you all day 7 days a week if you want.

To start, I took a week off work and did M-F, about 7 hours a day to
kick it off. That got me well over 1/3 of the way there. Should
have my IA rating by mid-March and going right into the Commercial.
Why? Why not?

BTW, Did you count the usual $300-500 in test prep material in your
$7000??? AF has their own...see if you can preview it first tho...I
think Sportys would be better...

Not sure how far this is, but might be worth checking out...

Can't hurt to take a lesson or two, it's all log-able!

FYI, no affiliation, just a satisfied customer...
