More About Us

• Let's Get You Flying

  Here's why we're a great choice for your training!
  We have three key elements to our schools that guarantee excellence:

  • 1. Instructor Quality
  • 2. Our outstanding safety record
  • 3. The quantity and quality of our planes

  We are more than willing to spend time with you to answer your questions, take you out to the flight line to let you look at the equipment, show you the equipment and answer all of your "what does this do" questions!

  We want you to do a 'vibe' check; use our Discovery Flight to see if you "mesh" with your instructor's style.

  We have in-House maintenance through our sister company, Markham Aviation Services, so with on-site maintenance and certified A&P mechanics we generally have lower downtime for repairs.
  We use the Piper Warrior for all PPL training, so you never have to wait for your type of plane to come back from the shop.

• We've been doing this since 1985, and we really like what we do!
