I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with Ferguson Aviation Academy either through taking lessons or just renting planes. I'm an SNFO who's finishing up intermediate and will be going to VAW-120 for the Hawkeye FRS, but we're being told we won't be leaving Pensacola until April. I thought I'd take advantage of the ~ 6 months of free time (A-pool deja vu!!) and get my private pilot's license and possibly an instrument rating.
Also, to any other NFOs who have gotten civil ratings, how much of my primary and intermediate training will transfer over? I doubt much of the flight time will count since I wasn't PIC but will the ground school count for something? I have the 25 hours and Xcountry solo from IFS and I wonder how much time/ money I should expect to spend.
