“ This school is great. Really good instruction. Part 141 school. Hard and fast paced schedule that will give you practical training and the degree to be a professional pilot. When the weather is not favorable they work with you so you can finish up your ratings/licenses. Like me for example, Jan & Feb were awful weather and I couldn't fly for 3 weeks. I didn't end up finishing before the semester ended. They gave me a countract extension so I could finish. Dispatch is always on top of things. The planes are always filled on fuel. Maintenance (which is in house) does a really good job of keep the planes online.”

“I booked an introductory flight with this school. The instructor was great. Very personable. Great atmosphere. This was the first time I’d ever touched the controls of an aircraft. This school provided me with a great first experience. Spent about an hour in the air. Had a blast. Highly recommended!”
