    Discovery flight was so fun! Affordable pricing, kind, and knowledgeable instructors. Perfect gift…read moreto get for yourself or your adventurous partner.

    I am highly disappointed with Brunswick Air and I will never recommend this flight school to…read moreanyone. My story with them started on Jan 23. 2020. During the old Management/Owner. During this time, I took my first flight with 1st CFI which was about 45min, I asked a ton of questions as to who would be my flight instructor, how long it would take and the cost. I was advised that the flight instructor will depend on a few factors, My schedule and compatibility. Great! On my second flight I was introduced to 2nd CFI, an older retired military pilot, we hit it off right away, during our first flight he introduced me to a few maneuvers, Slow flight and S-turns, he then asked if I have ever flown before, I advise just as a passenger. Things went well for the next 5 flights, Then Covid hit, for 3 months the school was closed. On 5/14 /2020 the school opened up and I was called, at that time I was advised the 2nd CFI would not be coming back so they paired me with a Younger CFI, I was concerned about this and because I began with 2nd CFI and already had time and money invested. It was explained to me that my log book will tell the story and not to worry because I would not have to start all over again that the new 3rd CFI will just continue where I left off with the 2nd CFI. I said OK and began working with 3rd CFI. We had flown from 05/14 /2020to 08/24/2021 fly approximately 3 to 4 times a month with some cancellations due to weather, maintenance and other life events. On 08/24/2021 we were scheduled to fly to Conway but I was advised that it would be my last flight with 3rd CFI as he was picked up by an airline which was great for him but my concerns grew once again, because I would have to work with yet another flight instructor. The next three flights were with 4th CFI, which was one of the worst instructors I had encountered in any profession. On the third flight I cut the flight short because he was too cavalier with safety and more concerned about building hours for himself rather than instructing. I had a conversation with him and provided him some feedback and explained that I cannot fly with him. At this point I was going to go elsewhere, the original owner at the time, apologized and got a new instructor and again my concern was time spent on training and money. She introduced me to my current instructor 5th, I was with him a few times and we also hit it off well. Here comes the hammer, the original owners decided to sell and retire, I was again concerned because I had accumulated 49 hours of flight training, 13.72 ground training and spent $10,785. Again, I was told not to worry that my logbook will tell the story and not much will change. Now 60.4hrs flight time, 21.64hrs ground a total of 82.32hrs and $13,720 spent, I was once gain mislead, the new owner has implemented a new process 6 months after he took over and without notice. According to this new process I am only now 30% completed and my instructor stated that unfortunately the time I spent with the school and instructor prior only will count as experience only. I didn't understand, experience comes from flying; I am paying them to teach. This feels to me as once the new owner took over everything prior is a wash. Now I am stuck, this is horrible.

    Trey Walters, along with his second in charge Ron are whats wrong with aviation. These people at…read moreBlue Line are doing bad business. After I was there for a week and an half I opted to leave after talking to Ron about how I was so disappointed and felt unsafe, they then proceeded to take $46,000 of my $100,000 for opportunity cost... I asked why they thought that reason and Trey told me because I decided to leave due to the course being to fast... Which he then made sure no one would talk to me in the company and then took almost a year to get any refund back. lying is one thing and screwing me in the process sure is unacceptable but the real problem being that these folks are creating even worse students and instructors that compromise the integrity of the industry and taking advantage of people in the process is a more important problem and I hope someone stops them.

    I highly recommend this school! All of the instructors were very nice and knowledgeable and fun to…read morefly with. this school gives you everything you need to succeed in your flight training. you get what you put into the program. Amber was great to work with to get set up with financial support and any questions i had about the school she was always quick to respond and to check on me going thru the program. Sam the CFI initial instructor really goes above and beyond to help get you prepared for your CFI checkride. This is a big exam and he will stay after class and help if needed to get you where you need to be. Airplanes are top notch and very fun to fly. You learn every aspect of the airplane and learn what it takes to become a professional pilot. Only negative thing about my experience was the scheduling. I had to wait days if not weeks for checkrides. I could have finished the program about 6-7 weeks sooner. The school had people to fix this but seemed to not be able to figure out this problem. to many students not enough airplanes. But that was my only complaint. If your looking for somewhere to go for training I recommend taking a visit and seeing what they offer.
