Our Instructors

We believe that if a customer is paying us to learn how to fly, we need to make them the safest, most competent pilot they can be. We realize, however, that flight instruction is not inexpensive and as such, we are committed teaching in the most efficient manner as possible. In order to achieve these goals, we staff only highly-qualified FAA certified instructors. Our instructors have diverse backgrounds with excellent flight experience.

Our team of instructors at all our locations are large enough to allow you flexibility in choosing the right flight instructor to fit your learning style and objectives. We will work with you to pair you with an instructor who will not only become a mentor in the cockpit and on the ground, but also a friend through your entire training program.
