            My son was enrolled into a Professional pilot course, and quoted $18,000 for the Instrument segment of the course. A ****** *** loan was installed for $82,000 which was intended to cover cost of not only Instrument segment, but also the following segments of Commercial, CFI, CFII, Multi engine amongst others.They set up a system failing Mitvaa for almost every activity three times so they could charge him thrice. This resulted in them enriching themselves fraudulently, citing ******'s inability to satisfactorily clear the activity. Their Instructors have stated that if he was a "Fixed cost" student, they would have signed him off in first attempt.He has exhausted his loan amount to the tune of $65000, leaving him not enough to complete the remainder of course. This is found to be increasinly common tactic of this flight academy.
