long shot but does anyone know anything about this flying school? i received their info pack the other day in the mail but obviously it only states the good side of it. I emailed them asking about an option mentioned where you could train up to either instructor or ATPL and differ payment until you have finished training, which has its good and bad side, Good, they gaurentee you a job after training either as an instructor or in the delta connection routes of delta obviously depending which route you chose. now if anyone could give me any info on this i would be grateful, i dont want to do this and end up $50000 in debt at the end of it and be seriously stuck in a crap job or really bad training enviroment. i am looking into this as an option incase we dont move to the US and end up somewhere else:)
thanks guys

Delta Connection Academy started out as the COMAIR Academy ...  at Orlando-Sanford Airport, Sanford, Florida?

THe place has been around for a long time.  As a matter of fact I drove by the place last night while waiting for a friend's flight to come in.

It is considered one of the more reputable commercial flight training academies in this area, and I believe they're working deals with former students of another commercial flight training facility that went belly up.
