Hey everyone,
I’m currently deciding between two flight schools in Spain:
European Flyers 85.5K € (Madrid – Cuatro Vientos)
Corflight 76K € (Córdoba)
I’ve visited both in person and had a good impression, but I’m struggling to find real and recent student feedback (2022–2026).
Here’s a quick comparison based on what they told me:
Flight training comparison
Corflight:
180h single-engine
30h multi-engine
210h total real flight
100h simulator
European Flyers:
140h single-engine
20h multi-engine
160h total real flight
80h simulator
European Flyers
- Well-known school, bigger structure
- Large student groups (ca.20)
- Based in a busy airport (LECU)
- Seems more “established”
Corflight
- Much smaller groups, more personal approach (ca. 15)
- Based directly at Córdoba airport
- Includes more structured flight progression
- Less information online, smaller school
My main concerns are:
- Flight scheduling (delays, aircraft availability)
- Quality of instruction and follow-up
- Real day-to-day experience as a student
- Whether school reputation actually matters later when applying to airlines
If anyone has first-hand experience with either school (especially recent), I’d really appreciate your honest opinion.
Thanks a lot 🙏
