Truly outstanding training. It was a pleasure to be taken through my paces with Schlimmer and Monty. Two outstanding pilots!

I talked with ATP Flight School admissions and asked about how much flight time is allocated for…read moreeach flight certificate, seeing as for a part 61 school (ATP Flight School is part 61, not 141) and the FAA minimum amount of flight time is 40 hours. However, just for a private pilot license the national average is in the range of 60-75 hours. Knowing how many hours a school factors into their quotes is important because you'll either have to pay for additional flight time, or (as is the case with ATP Flight School) you'll end up being kicked from the program. The guy I talked to in Admissions was unwilling to give me the flight time allowed for each certificate. When asked if there was someone else who could answer my questions I was told there wasn't anyone. I was finally able to get him to tell me that by the end of the program I would have 300 flight hours, and that the FAA minimum as 275. So ask yourself: if the national average of the private pilot certificate is already 75 hours (rather than the minimum of 40 allowed by the FAA for a part 61 school) and ATP Flight School only allows 25 extra hours over the minimum for the ENTIRE PROGRAM does this give you much of a chance? What exactly are you paying for here? My analysis? This is a scam provided by a money-hungry business taking advantage of those who don't know much about the industry. Look at what other schools charge, understand the difference between the FAA minimum required flight hours for each certificate and the national average of flight time it takes pilots to gain the certificates, and understand some schools are honest, while other schools make a lot of money while doing favors to no one. Arm yourself with knowledge, and good luck!

A huge shout out to my CFI, Cal, who was awesome. He was very friendly and patient. Despite it being a basic intro course, his chill vibe made it an enjoyable experience. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone interested in aviation. The Apache Junction reservoir and the Superstition range at 5k feet sure is a pretty sight. Thanks, Cal and thank you Classic Air Aviation!

So, at KFFZ many years, nice Redbird and a descent fleet. But, now nearly a whole year, nada. And…read morethey don't reply to emails I have sent about 7 in the past 10 months. Apparently they are 'going to be' at KCHD...but after the 'summer' was 9/21/2024...Now a month later, their site has that message...their sim and planes I am guessing are at KCHD now..but I am guessing. I have wanted to do a training recurrency event with them...they'd be a good fit for my recency. otherthan Classic..in the entire valley NOW...zero. The valley isn't the 10+ years ago place and is 100% ANTI general aviation...it's a 'monetize' every human...place..A person wanting a 'fair' and quality IPC and FR...in a sim and then a finish up in a twin..with 3 landings...to get 'fresh' is out of luck unless that person although extremely proficient and competent...will not maybe will be charged 7x the real net cost..via "we only always do it that way" which means a IPC and FR and 3 landings will cost ya 400% because "that is how I do it"..IN Denver or Seattle or Van Nuys or Houston or Dallas, REAL metros that LOVE and protect G.A. pilots..you can have a choice of FTD's for a full IPC or a array of schools with a quality AATD and a nice twin...in a week I'd have 4 of those...not true in the Phoenix metro...it was long long ago. Even ERAU at KPRC and ASU at KIWA and UND at KIWA ..."gee man we USED to let folks fly our FTD x2 and have their IPC we won't now..only our $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ program customers TOUCH our sims." so now if you live in this area...lots of luck get re-ready for resumes out...Not happening with quality and time frame...and Twins in this area are marginally maintained or charged rates that are SAME as Van Nuys or Denver..so much for Valley of the Sun low costs of living. where a CHD studio apt. unf. is $1700 + electric per month.

I have been to their office 2x the past 2 months. The on duty flight instructor was friendly and…read moreinformative. Note that their Redbird is a BATD so read your Instrument rating ACS table to SEE the limited items a BATD is FAA approved to DO and COUNT for...rating and otherwise...like NO IPC's...a BATD does none of that. Next, my first visit we talked about their Aztec twin which does not often fly...and that the only MEI allowed to instruct in it is the boss/the owner...He is a high time airline pilot. My visit days ago "we sold the Aztec we have NO plan to buy or lease or in any way add/bring on ANY twin again". So no multi ratings and no multi recurrency like 3 multi engine landings to be 90 day multi current. Right now in the valley, this is common. AT KCHD same story, Chandler Air Service has a Aztec but it's been in a major annual for updates too for over a year and their (a week ago) Chief flight instructor says it'll be in it's 1+ year of annual a lot longer...Few schools have a twin and none have a REAL twin- over 200hp and conventional spin props...So if you hope to fly a Gulfstream or a Challenger jet FAR91 or FAR135 forget that. No good operator of FAR91 or FAR135 high end jets wants a pilot who cannot handle a engine out when it's 250 or 350hp and the props are conventional ie: both spin the same direction....so that Vmc is a big deal...Like is the case with a Aztec or Baron or CE310...or a Chieftain...If you are skilled at engine out in such twins, you will be considered for a SIC job with a operator with Lears and Falcons and maybe a older Gulfstream...Other than you buddy being the owner or Chief pilot of the jet, no, you won't get the job with Duchess or Seminole or Twin Comanche hours...not going to happen. 2025 folks
