Epic flight academy is a really good flight school most of the time for the aircraft availability, they have all good aircrafts and a large quantities of c172 g1000, if you are looking for a flight school to star. Epic is a good choice, you can get from private license to a commercial license with intrument rating around a year even though weather in Florida sometimes does not helps with the pilot training, i just finish my licenses and will be coming back to my country but i would for sure recommend epic as a flight school!

My Review of Epic Flight Academy:
Epic is not a bad flight academy. If you put quite good effort into it, your flight training will go good.
It is equipped sufficiently except for the multiengines, you could get delayed in the last part of becoming a commercial pilot after you get your instrument rating.
The best thing is that you come out of it with unique knowledge!
First time i stepped into a cockpit was 9 months ago, and now im taking my commercial checkride in less than 2 weeks.

The best thing is that you come out of it with unique knowledge!
First time i stepped into a cockpit was 9 months ago, and now im taking my commercial checkride in less than 2 weeks.

My Review of Epic Flight Academy:
Epic is not a bad flight academy. If you put quite good effort into it, your flight training will go good.
It is equipped sufficiently except for the multiengines, you could get delayed in the last part of becoming a commercial pilot after you get your instrument rating.

My Review of Epic Flight Academy:
This is not a flight school, this is a big trap ! They are really nice when you speak with them. This is so wrong. They play very well and they absolutly don't care about you. You are only a source of money, nothing else. They lie on prices (a lot), on courses, on almost everything. They charge you for something which not exist. A lot of mistakes on the invoices. Some flights are charged twice. They take money from your account without telling you. Rooms are expensive and so dirty !!! This school is a trap and a crap ! They will never give your money back. They prefer let you die than give you 1$ back. Not enough airplanes and really often in maintenance. Flights cancelled or have to wait weeks to fly commercial. I have a lot of other examples. The only honest person was my instructor. If someone would like to have more information, don't hesitate to contact me. Stay so far away than possible from this school !
