We think of ourselves as the Southwest Airlines of flight training.

Leather interior, state-of-the-art avionics, and quiet engines create a comfortable, modern training environment further enhancing your training experience. And they are meticulously maintained. Safety is always first, because the last thing you want to be concerned about during your training is maintenance of the aircraft. You can be confident we have this one under control freeing you to focus on the task at hand...flying. Of further benefit to you, the aircraft offer state-of-the-art technology and are configured exactly as the aircraft utilized in the Computer Based Instruction Program so you will not have to worry about learning different radio stacks and avionics configurations...again, this will allow you to focus on flying.
