What Makes Us Different

A Collection of Processes

We use an effective approach that is used in computer engineering...Breaking down complex problems into manageable processes. A process is a series of actions or steps taken to achieve a specific outcome, while a routine is a habitual sequence of actions performed regularly.

Flying is just an extension of ground school

We teach on the ground then coach the execution in the air. Sports coaches teach techniques and strategies in practice, then the athletes execute to the best of their ability & training in games.

Dancing with Flow Charts in Mind

For many of us it was hard to have consistent landings or steep turns until we realize they are like dance performances that use flow charts.

Same Habits Different Platforms

Most flight schools use one platform (type of airplane). We believe in building a set of habits then using those in any platform (C150, C172, C182, PA-28, and more).

We Care About Helping You Progress

If it takes you an hour to learn just to taxi that is fine with us.

If you learn quickly...

We have had students land on their first lesson controlling more with words than hands & feet.

We teach basic concepts of instrument and commercial before getting private.

We have multiple private students that have done power off 180s at night.
