Additionally, they are utilizing a "no-touch" thermometer for all persons prior to entering the building; anyone with a temperature higher than 100.4 degrees will politely be asked to reschedule their flight. Our partners kindly ask that all guests wear a mask, and wash their hands frequently, including upon entry to the facility, before and after each ground school and flight lesson, and after using the restroom.

I love to hear that you and Jon were able to get into the nitty-gritty of flight, and that this experience sparked a new love for taking to the skies. Thanks for the recommendation! Best, Sophia

It was very fun and informative I learned a lot about what I will have to do on the private pilots license test to get my license and basics on how to fly a plane in general.

Hi, Michael! Wow, that's such a great review to see - thanks a bunch for taking the time to leave your thoughts with us! Is there any better feeling than taking the controls? I don't think so! Soon enough you'll be soaring around the sky like a pro. Cheers, Jake.

It was great! We flew over lake Lanier

— Summer C | May 10, 2019

Amazing!!!! My boyfriend was beyond measure happy. He kept saying he actually got to fly the plane, in the pilot seat, he didn't know he was actually going to have the amount of time really controlling and learning to fly. I got to ride along with him and the pilot. It was very enjoyable even from my seat. It's definitely an experience that will be remembered for a lifetime! 1354

Hi Alicia, thank you so much for sharing you and your boyfriend's amazing experience!

We hope to see you back again soon for more memorable experiences! Best, Kelsey
