Flight Training Programs
Our specialty is advanced-topic flight training.
But we do it all.
Our team of professional flight instructors is here to make your training a safe and enjoyable experience. We have a breadth of experience in all types of aircraft from the venerable Cub to sailplanes, helicopters, seaplanes, multi-engine trainers and the turbine DC-3, unmanned systems, and military strike-fighter jets.
Our primary offerings are tailwheel endorsements and seaplane add-on ratings, with introductory, recurrent, and advanced training in both. We also provide military-to-civilian transitions with rental opportunities in our Piper Warrior. More is to come...
Spin endorsements, advanced tailwheel, and other customized training available upon request.

We do training part-time and by appointment only. Due to our growing customer list, full-time jobs, restricted airspace, DPE availability, and other aviation-related challenges, we may not be able to fly with you right away. Please contact us for more information and we will make every effort to accommodate your training needs.
Seaplane
The Cessna 185 is the light airplane of choice for bush pilots!
Due to increasing fuel costs and other supply chain issues, we are suspending our flat-rate packages. All training will be conducted at the normal flight hour rate. The minimum training required for a Single-Engine Sea Add-On Rating recommendation is 5.0 hours of instruction, but 6.0 - 10.0 is a common range. Our DPE will be available most Sundays for the remainder of the season and will have limited availability on weekdays.
Training: Seaplane rating courses, Discovery flights for non-pilots, seaplane introductory flights, high performance endorsements, complex endorsements, refresher training, and insurance checkouts are available at $495 per flight hour and ground school at $60 per hour.
Tailwheel
The Cessna 140 is a great initial tailwheel trainer. Tailwheel endorsements usually take 4-6 hours over 3-4 flights. You'll practice three point and wheel landings, and crosswind procedures at both grass and paved runways.
Discovery flights for non-pilots, refresher training, insurance checkouts, and advanced tailwheel training are available in both aircraft.
Cessna 140: $205 per flight hour. Includes airplane, fuel, and flight instructor.
Ground school $60 per hour.
Private Pilot and Military-to-Civilian Transition
Our Piper PA-28-161 Warrior is a VFR four-place airplane used for a variety of training and rentals.
Piper Warrior: $240 per flight hour. Includes airplane, fuel, and flight instructor.
$195 per flight hour for Solo rental, fuel included.
Ground school $60 per hour.
