I may be out of line by asking but how much did this school cost? It sounds like you learned alot in those few days. I'm sure some others might be tempted to go to one if they knew a price. As for the crash, In seven weeks of being at my club (i go once a week) i have seen about 12 planes crash. Anywhere from trainers to jets. It seems like there is a high mortality rate with things that defy gravity. I hope to be very careful and out live the odds there.
