Start your journey in aviation with your private pilot’s certificate.

Whether your goal is to start career 2.0 and become an airline pilot, or you just want to fulfill your childhood dream of becoming an aviator, the private pilot’s certificate is the first step.

Earning your private pilot license could be one of your life’s most rewarding achievements! My mission is to help you to turn your goals into reality in a fun, safe and enjoyable atmosphere. We have several aircraft with state-of-the-art avionics, autopilot, and ADS-B in and out for the added situational awareness and safety.

We train pilots primarily under the FAA 14 CFR Part 61 program which allows you the flexibility to learn at a pace that fits your schedule. We do offer part 141 training and we have a program for those of you that want to earn your 2 or 4 year degree. ALL of your flight training counts towards your degree requirements and you can earn your degree in as little as 8 months.

Private Pilot License Requirements:
Be at least 16 years old to solo. (But you can start before 16)
Be at least 17 years old to earn a Private Pilot Certificate
Be able to read, write, speak and understand English.
Obtain at least a 3rd Class Medical Certificate.

----- I would love to teach you how to fly -----

If you come to train with me or any of our CFI's, you can expect to fly 4-7 days per week.

I’m often booked out 4-6 weeks in advance, so if you want to guarantee your spot, I strongly recommend you make a reservation so you don’t miss out on the dates you are hoping for.
