I started at Blue Line Aviation with my private pilot certificate back in June of 2019. I moved…read moreacross the country from Washington State to attend and do their accelerated professional pilot program. I loved it. The planes, the instructors and the people there make you feel like you're at home. Now, it is a lot of work... There's a reason you can get through your Instrument, Commercial Single and Multi as well as CFI, CFII and MEI. You have you to show up ready to work for it. No one is going to hand you a rating. The CFI course is intense, two weeks from day one to your checkride, but if you do exactly what you're asked to do, you'll do great in your ride. Will I recommend this program for everyone? No. I don't believe it is for everyone. If you're ready to work hard, you're self motivated and ready to get a job flying and making money in less than 6 months, Blue Line is the place for you. If you're considering ATP, you should have an idea what's expected--definitely check out Blue Line. You'll pay less and finish faster.

Trey Walters, along with his second in charge Ron are whats wrong with aviation. These people at…read moreBlue Line are doing bad business. After I was there for a week and an half I opted to leave after talking to Ron about how I was so disappointed and felt unsafe, they then proceeded to take $46,000 of my $100,000 for opportunity cost... I asked why they thought that reason and Trey told me because I decided to leave due to the course being to fast... Which he then made sure no one would talk to me in the company and then took almost a year to get any refund back. lying is one thing and screwing me in the process sure is unacceptable but the real problem being that these folks are creating even worse students and instructors that compromise the integrity of the industry and taking advantage of people in the process is a more important problem and I hope someone stops them.

Corrine at Alpha World Travel helped me to plan an amazing honeymoon for my wife! I am not a well…read moreseasoned traveler and had never been to an all inclusive, but Corrine walked me through the entire process. She stuck to our budget and helped us pick the best Sandals resort for our style, since there are so many to choose from. She made sure that we had all the travel documents we needed, kept us up to date on Covid entry requirements, and she sent us a travel tips sheet that spelled out exactly what to expect when traveling to a sandals resort. On our return trip, we had a flight get cancelled on a Sunday at 7pm, so I called the Alpha World Travel office number to get some help in getting a flight rebooked. Lynn was the one who helped us out of this pinch, and she went above and beyond, she got us in contact with an airline booking agent in minutes, and she had a rental car booked for us when we landed in Charlotte and had to drive back to Raleigh. I would highly recommend Alpha World Travel and I will definitely be using them again in the future!

Paul is a great guy. If you want lessons from a guy who has over 18,000 hours logged, will push…read moreyour comfort limits and will NOT waste your time, go with this guy's outfit. Be forewarned he's old school (limited GPS usage and no iPads etc) and he flies older but well maintained airplanes, and it helps keep his prices more reasonable. On your check ride you won't be able to use any nav equipment other than VOR, so you'll thank yourself for the extra effort in planning XCs. Also, if you are a snowflake who can't take constructive criticism, don't go with him. Go with some other place that will patronize you while siphoning your wallet. Only thing about the guy is that his time is limited for personal and for professional reasons (he has several students and is just one man), so please do not expect to finish in a short amount of time. If you want your PPL in a month or less, contact one of the big boys near RDU or elsewhere and pony up $12k or more in a short amount of time. If you want to spend 30-50% less and have it stretched over time, go with Paul.
