“I have made major breakthroughs running those drills you sent over in the past few days. I can’t tell you how excited I am to be working with you. I have made more progress in a few short lessons than I have in the last ten years. The best educational experience I’ve ever had.”

Our instructors specialize in offering custom coaching (on an hourly basis) to fit your unique needs. However, some common training goals our clients have include:

  • Follow an actual flight training syllabus (private pilot, instrument, commercial, etc.) as if you are a real life flight student (at a tiny fraction of the cost of real-world flight lessons)
  • Learn how to talk to Air Traffic Control so you can fly on VATSIM, PilotEdge, or IVAO with complete confidence
  • Fly with a real-life Boeing 787 pilot and simulate multi-pilot crew operations
  • Practice challenging V1 cuts and CAT III approaches as if you were an airline pilot training in a Level D simulator.
  • Get help using your latest flight simulator add-ons
  • Learn how to takeoff and land at the world’s most challenging airports
