What is this fuel surcharge you speak of and gas is a lot cheaper than that for the school(tax exempt) so its like $2 a gallon from what im told because of the tax exempt status.

i dunno about that. But from what im told we get charged a fuel surcharge you know the usual way to get more money out of people. But thats one of the reasons im switching schools.

yea thats basically all that surcharge is. hell the rent for that planes go up because of gas but there is still that surcharge. and yea when i was told how much gas was for the school i told them they were crazy, and then a couple other people confirmed it as i just asked what we paid for fuel.

yeah the price of fuel goes up and so does the airplane rental. so i dont understand the whole surcharge part of it. Like i said basically anyone starting, watch out as they will try to get as much money out of you as they can. But some of the schools are honest. For just a private i heard American Flyers out of PDK is a really good school.
