Our experienced instructors will help you reach your flight goals. Whether it's your first flight or you'd like to restart your flying dreams, we can assist you.
Our training fleet primarily consists of Cessna 172 aircraft. These planes are incredibly stable and well suited for flight training, as is evident by their prolific usage as the industry standard in flight schools throughout the world. Our aircraft are standard '6-pack' equipped with Garmin 430W GPS units and are fully IFR certified. Other planes are available for niche add-on goals, such as high performance and complex aircraft. Whatever your flight training aspirations may be, we have the qualified equipment and instructors to get you there.
