Why are pilots from terrorist nations still training in the US?

Right here in my hometown-

Syrian Flight Schools

Just cant believe it. These people need to go home now. They do not need to be in America training to hit the next big building.


In 1995 I rented a private plane and did a few touch-and-go landings there. This air field is 3 minuets from my house!

I say they should have training simulators in their country. To train as a pilot in this country, make it so that you have to be a US citizen.

many countries send thier pilots here to train since it is more affordable than thier own countries. Having better background checks would be a better solution.

so?

America is a terrorist nation as well (in a different way).

i say let them do their training. then when they're qualified, take them up in the real thing and give them a hands on demonstration of an emergency exit at 35,000 feet.

What country are you from? You better have a good reason for saying that.

My flight instructor was from Pakistan...He's an airline pilot now, and I wonder how he's been treated.
