Completed Checkrides
It is so rewarding to pass your Checkride for any Certificate or Rating! It is such a culmination of all your efforts. Thinking of completing an oral or flight with a Designated Pilot Examiner can cause a lot of fear in some people. No worries, we prepare you well! Our preparation for Checkride begins as soon as you start training. We teach you about the FAA requirements, how to apply what you learn to real life, and help you be successful for passing your Checkride!

I was able to teach our oldest grandson to fly. I love sowing aviation into our Heritage. Can you imagine being 17 and being able to enjoy aviation your WHOLE life? Your son or daughter can too...give us a call to learn more!

College, work, and pilot training DO go hand-in-hand. Tucker had wanted to get his Private Pilot Certificate for a while. He convinced his dad they should do it together. Tucker also did his start to finish in 8 months!

 Brian Benson - 12/03/20 Private Pilot This man right here; you have him to thank. Vonda might be in the aircraft as the CFI...but this business would not exist without his support, dedication, and his own hard work.

He now is an Advanced Ground Instructor (AGI) and trains many students helping them prepare for written tests and oral checkride prep! |  Jason Edman - 11/02/20 Private Pilot Jason was in a flying club in Sparta.
