Thank you for all that information,

what do you think about; American Flyers, Phoenix East Aviation and Air
America Flight Center?

I think more of private flight instructors! I am not a fan of flight
schools where everybody wears pretentious uniforms with epaulets, etc.

They may teach airline procedures, but they do not teach aviating. Most
of those guys would not know how to handle an engine failure, because
they always fly powered approaches, dragging in on long finals.

There is a critical metric you may want to think about as you consider
a school. Ask the several you are especially interested in about their
placement history. They should be able to tell you about the job
offers their recent graduates have had. The bottom line is you are
choosing a school that will prepare you for a career, so choose one
that has a history of getting its students placed in a career field
similar to the one you are most interested in.

A person who expects to have a serious stake in becoming an airline
pilot had better expect to gain an undergraduate degree as well as an
ATP. If he is interested in gaining these prizes in the US rather
than say Brazil - it would be good to look over a list of best buys.

I seem to recall that UNorth Dakota has a very respectable program,
and there are two Oklahoma locations in the running. Spartan(Tulsa)
and the SE Okla university college (whose name I am not presently
recalling.) I have in mind a price tag of $60K plus.

Sincerely
