Those schools didn't care if I got a good aviation education or not. They just wanted my money. I feel so lucky that I found Florida Aviation Academy. Carrie and Jack are truly hands on and make sure ever student is getting the attention and flying education they deserve. My instructor, Jeremy was amazing and I am progressing as a commercial pilot with a great airline. I def recommend this school to anyone who wants to become a commercial pilot. Not just a commercial pilot, but a pilot who is respected because of their skills.

Everything about the experience was amazing! I made a reservation several days in advance, and as…read morethe day approached, there was a possibility of inclement weather.

Wonderful school with great teachers. My experience there was both very challenging and rewarding…read more Don't come here thinking you will be getting anything handed to you but you will be rewarded if you just stay on your studies. I was the type of student that slacked off in high school and barely passed but was able to maintain and A average in this class. My 2 best pieces of advice are to stay for the hour after class for tutoring as much as possible to grasp all the concepts as soon as possible and the get the ADX out of the way before you even show up to the school. Anytime I ever needed anything the staff was there to be accommodating and helpful without any hesitation including the president of the school himself. I also stayed in their housing for my duration of school and it was a wonderful experience as well. You aren't getting top of the line cook ware or tempurpedic beds but the housing has plenty of study areas and is conveniently located within walking distance to the school and grocery stores. The house I was in even had a pool and basketball court in the back yard. You aren't going to have very much time to use it but it was a nice stress relief to take a little 20 minute shooting break in the backyard from time to time. The city of plantation is also wonderful. I would wake up and take morning runs through a community park that was pretty close too to keep my mind and body fresh. In conclusion this course is quite the animal but if you take care of yourself, eat right, sleep right, stay diligent on your studies, and work together you will be fine. If you come here thinking you are going to get everything handed to you and it's going to be easy you will most likely fail. Get in, get after it, and get it done.

My question regarding that the app doesn't work offline: I…read morebought your ADX Test Prep app, and I am not happy with it at all. I travel a lot (several flights a week) and can not use it on the plane to study while traveling as it doesn't work offline. Pretty much worthless to me as that a lot of my free "study time", is without a connection. I shouldn't have to purchase internet access on every flight in order to use your product. Here is the pretty rude and unprofessional reply form the President of the company to my complaint: Forgive me for developing an app that has a small footprint of storage (~15 mb as opposed to some using 1-2 GB). Our ADX app utilizes a 10TB server. One possible option for you to take away from this is before buying an app based on illogical and faulty assumptions, perhaps call or email and ask the developer specific questions. You could have easily done this before mid-August 2022. If the app description includes this statement "This app requires wi-fi to operate the 'Exam' mode", which it does, that should imply that this app requires wi-fi to some extent. The exam mode happens to load faster with wi-fi. Thought I'd help users... Lastly, when you read descriptions of our app on the store that says "multiple modes allow the user to customize quizzes, or study using text, images, audio, and video all directed into your app using a dedicated server" that word 'server' should imply Internet, which should imply on-line as opposed to off-line. Out of 1500+ buyers, I've never received this kind of complaint. Eric Morris President

In my opinion, this is an ASA cert mill. In my 7 day 101-104 class we did zero docking, zero…read morenavigation other than line of sight, zero man overboard procedure (perhaps the most disturbing), zero discussion on sail trim/how to sail, anchored only one time, did not learn to provision, or to enter countries (captain provisioned and checked us in). Captain Jose Miranda was a nice person and answered the million questions that I had, but I can tell he was burnt out and just going through the motions of making sure we pass our ASA tests. He had zero interest in teaching us to dock or to sail properly, at least from my perspective. All students in my class had prior sailing experience, so we managed to do well when we did sail the boat. Jose would just go into the bridge deck and look at his phone while we sailed. Long story short, if you want certs fast and relatively easy, then BWSS is a good choice. However, if you actually want to learn to sail, I fully recommend another company like Maryland School of Sailing. I am having to take more classes just to learn the basics like docking and coastal navigation. Lastly, this is not an attack on the employees/owner of BWSS. Everyone was helpful and nice. The curriculum needs vast improvement, though. I do regret taking this class because wanted more in-depth training and practice. This was more like a classroom on a boat with 6 hours of vacation activities ever afternoon.

Had I not called, I do not know when I would have been told. I also did not receive a refund until I had that conversation about camp. It is unprofessional to cancel camp and not provide any notice of the cancellation. The owner also spoke extremely rudely to me telling me that there was nothing she could do about the lack of communication "slipping through the cracks".
