Hi, I'm looking for the same thing as well. I've found this company Accelerated Professional Pilot Program - The Fastest Multi Engine Time Building Program but don't know anything about them. Let me know if you come across something good and maybe I'll join you.

Are you looking for block time or flight instruction/rental time? If you are looking for the latter, PM me. We have a Seneca I and I'm offering 50% off instruction time since things have slowed down quite a bit for twin training in our area.
If you are looking for block time, I haven't found anything cheaper than Ari Ben Aviator. They seemed to have changed their name to AVIATOR Flight Training Academy and have a new website - http://www.aviator.edu/home/flight-t...-programs.aspx.

Hey Gajre539, do you know anything about Ari Ben. How's the quality of equipment they fly and any pros/cons? I spoke with them and they're about 10k with all the taxes and APPP is about the same but you get it done faster.

If you go to Cedar Key you will see nothing, the plane was removed within less than a week.
I knew the guys who were involved, they were time builders. I was also time building at the time and flew with one of the guys quite a bit.
The indecent has absolutely NOTHING to do with maintenance and everything to do with pilot judgement.
Their twin engine airplanes are fairly all old, the last dutchess was produced in 1982.
Because the price at the Aviator is so low, their airplanes do get a lot of "use" and fly literally around the clock at times. The maintenance actually keeps up pretty well considering, and they take all squaks and 100hrs seriously.
I have seen a few incidents involving their aircraft and none of them were because of maintenance.
I did hear from others who have been there in the past and from what I gather they have started taking maintenance much more seriously in the recent years.
I really have no stake in weather you decide to attend or not, but it was the best price for muti time when I made my decision and I still think I made the right choice.

I'll try this again.
Looking for someone to split time in a Seminole out of (RVS) Riverside in Tulsa. The cost is $150 and hour which makes it $75/hr for you. I'd like to start in the next couple of weeks.
PM if interested.
