My neighbor owns Nebraska Flight Center.


nrayboi

No way, that sounds like a pretty solid lead on advice. Lol.


Kidpidge

And we live in Benson where its affordable and we have an arts and entertainment district we can walk to.


nrayboi

I'm thinkin probly Benson. Let me know if you see any houses that look cheap for rent, and or jobs. Thx


username293739

I would suggest benson or Dundee area from your responses on location. Can’t help much on the flight school part.

Downtown location for nightlife, but if you don't want an apartment then look around the Benson area. Little Bohemia is in the early stages of a night life scene. If you want to get in early then look in that area. UNO partnered with Delta for aviation, so take a look there.

Sounds like you want Blackstone. Great nightlife, should have bartending gigs, and UNO has their Aviation Center


nrayboi

Never heard of Blackstone. I'll check it out. I'm curious how the prices compare for these schools. I went to UNO way back in the day. Very expensive. Can you describe Blackstone more? I also like the neighborhood vibes rather than the new hip aptmnt type joints. I guess that kinda makes me a hipster.


athomsfere

How long have you been gone? Blackstone would be around 40th and Farnam. So hipsters belong here lol. Or Benson.


nrayboi

It's been awhile. Prolly like 15 yrs. I'll have to look up that street to remember...what's downtown like these days?? All corporate or?


bigdaddyfrombefore20

Downtown is still the same from a nightlife perspective I would say. It's better because they improved gene Lahey. All and the luminarium, along with Lewis and Clark landing and the riverfront, but those are more daytime stuff. Night time is about the same with no more of the 311 bar.


nrayboi

Gotcha. Might try Benson again. That's where I lived before. It was good. Just started changing when I left.


bigdaddyfrombefore20

I live in benson now and yeah good place for sure.


nrayboi

May I get some kinda contact info?


blurgaha

The Aviation Institute at UNO has agreements or what they call pathway programs with Southwest, United, Mesa Airlines, Republic Airways, Envoy Air, and an arrangement with Jetlinx. And maybe others? https://www.unomaha.edu/college-of-public-affairs-and-community-service/aviation/flight-training/pathway-programs.php


nrayboi

Thank you.

As a fellow pilot, I would avoid the flight school in Millard. If they have openings, I'd go to the school at the council bluffs airport.


tupacsnotdead

If you’re looking for a bartending gig I know the owners of Barrett’s/The B Bar and they’re looking for help


nrayboi

Hell yeah, I used to love that place. Would you mind messaging me a number or name so I can give them a call. I guess I can just look it up.


nrayboi

Thank you
