    Overall Rating: 10/10 Date of Attendance: 3-DEC-24 to…read more13-DEC-24 I spent two weeks at SAW doing formation, aerobatic, spin recovery, and tailwheel flight training. Flying at SAW was the most exciting flying that I have ever done in my aviation career. The owner Mike, and the other instructors that I flew with had an abundance of knowledge to pass on. Without a doubt this was the most professional flight schools that I have seen/attended. Flight Instruction Quality: Every instruction for the day began and ended with a formal briefing. These briefings weren't over the top, but they did cover the essentials which really made me feel like I was getting the most out of the flight that day. One good example was my first formation flight. The day before we went over a detailed powerpoint that covered FFI and FAST criteria for professional formation flights. All the instructors were very easy to talk to and enjoyed teaching, which I know can be a challenge for other flight schools because most instructors are just trying to accrue hours -- not the case for SAW though. To me, it felt like the instructors cared more about safety and making me a better pilot, and less about money or flight hours. Plane & Equipment: All the equipment was very well taken care of and kept up to date. There was also computer training availability with a VR headset. We used the VR a couple of times to allow me to visualize the aerobatic maneuvers before hopping right into the plane (this helped lower my spendings). Another great tool that maximized my training was filming the entire fight from multiple angles. Mike has cameras set up on the Decathlon and we would review the maneuvers after every flight. When I was there, Mike was also working on implementing an Insta 360 camera that could transition into the VR headset. I found that viewing (360 view) my flight through VR helped me visualize the small errors in my control inputs versus trying to correct them in the air. Feedback: Overall, the instruction was outstanding. It's not often that you come across a school with instructors that have as much combined aviation experience as SAW. I really don't have any negative things to say about them. All flight training is expensive in my opinion, but SAW was very fairly priced for the level of information/training they provide. It's not hard to imagine, but being trained by former fighter pilots enhanced my piloting skills 10 fold. I definitely plan on going back to them in the future. Recommend For: I would highly recommend training at SAW to anyone that is interested. Private pilot and up. Personal one-on-one training that is tailored for all experience levels. If you're a student pilot I might recommend that you get your PPL before receiving any aerobatic/formation training just so you have more of a foundation, but it would never hurt.

    From the owner: Specialized flight training: UPRT, aerobatics, tailwheel, backcountry and more. Aerobatic rides…read more By appointment only
