Flight School Perks
I should also add that at Riddle instructors had unlimited use of the AST-300s. Great for preparing for the ATP and interviews. Also, three hours proficiency time per semester in all aircraft in which you were qualified. Instructors would fly together and give each other BFRs, comp checks and night currency.
FlightSafety was far less generous with the perks. Only limited use of the Frascas and NO proficiency time. I thought that not receiving proficiency time was really wrong because I considered it unconscionable to stay current on the students' nickels. Good health and 401-K, though.
