So the question remains if the language barrier slows up the training, and it does happen, then perhaps these flight schools need to have a litmus test of sorts for English proficiency before accepting a Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060827553081940333.post-23731325632646256832020-12-14T15:58:34.412-05:002020-12-14T15:58:34.412-05:00Not sure about this operation, but a lot of the So...Not sure about this operation, but a lot of the South Florida schools are pulling students from India and China.
