Testimonials
“Their approach to flight training is thorough, professional, organized, and fast paced which they have tried to encapsulate in their name “Aerocademy”.
David Chivens, EAA Journalist
“I did my private pilot’s license and instrument training with Gary. I am very impressed with the level of professionalism and dedication provided throughout the training. Gary is very devoted to his work and did everything possible to perfectly prepare me for my checkrides. Also, the planes are in excellent condition (you won’t see an INOP tag anywhere), and always clean. The flight school facility speaks for itself, spacious and bright meeting rooms with a great view of the airport, free high-speed internet access, a huge variety of hot and cold drinks, snacks and candy; and, a staff that serves you with a smile on their face! I think all of that makes the flight school a great place to fly with or to; just spend your day hanging out! One thing is for sure, I won’t fly anywhere else again!”
