My Decision

Welcome to my student blog, my name is Jessica and I have just recently started the flight program in Houston with Delta Connection Academy. If you’re reading this, you’re probably pretty serious about finding a flight school appropriate for you.
I searched the internet and requested information from many schools in order to choose the right one for me. If you haven’t searched online, I suggest you start there. Delta Connection Academy (DCA) was the right choice for me because the program fit my learning style.
Deciding to give up my career was not a decision I took lightly, and I wanted to give myself the best chance for success. DCA is a part 141 school which means the lessons are planned and taught in a pre-determined order. These are agreed upon and followed throughout the company so whether you’re in Orlando or Houston, you’ll get the same lessons in the same order. This applies to ground school as well as flight lessons, which helps decrease unnecessary repetition and omitted information. This helps me go through flights as I am ready, without pushing too quickly or holding me back.
Now in my fifth week, I am happy with my choice to attend DCA. It is hard work, but the instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the students in my class are on this mission with me to complete the program. I look forward to sharing my experience with you through this blog.
