The school taught me that we always have a better day to fly, so we don't need to risk our life by flying in dangerous weather like some of the other flight schools. I learnt my PPL,IR,CPL,MEL,MEI and CFI here. The lesson syllabus is organized, the courses are a little bit pricey but it's worth it as you gotta pay the staffs for their hard work. The evaluation is fair and the instructors won't fail your stage check without any reason.

Arrived…read moreabout 15 minutes early per their request, checked in and waited for our flight instructor Scott to arrive. Scott was right on time and very personable. He introduced himself and led us to the flight simulator which is located in a hanger on the property. Scott setup the simulator and I climbed aboard. Once everything was ready Scott asked me where in the world I'd like to fly which was really cool. He got me on the ground where I wanted to fly and proceeded to get me started. Scott was very patient and recognized what I needed to get the flight going. Having had some previous simulator experience he stepped in only when necessary which gave me an excellent experience. I was able to fly for a complete hour as my wife wasn't interested...I had an excellent experience and would recommend Bountiful Flight to anyone seeking flight training or wanting to try out the flight simulator. Scott would be an excellent instructor no matter what your needs. I hope to return in the future for additional sessions.

Ground instruction is great, designed to not let you fail. You will be prepared for orals. Flight…read moreinstruction is ok. Airplane to student ratio is poor. If you weigh more than 170ish plan to be flying a DA-40/20 depending on your location. They have roughly 8-10 DA-40s total and 0-4 up at a time. Mx is slow and prioritizes cruisers. Cruiser USA is also owned by Jason Clarke, so his FLT Mx guys are routinely building sport cruisers for customers of cruiser USA. Upper MGMT is dismissive of students concerns/requests. The school relies on a student base who cannot afford flight training otherwise. They partner with funding companies that lock you into high interest loans, and in turn, get you to sign a training agreement that ensures you cannot leave if you are dissatisfied with their product down the line. They will try to convince you that their program is faster, but it's not. The timeline published on the website for their career track program is inaccurate by 6-8 months. They do not have anyone finishing private pilot in under 55 hours. Expect to take 65-85 hours for private. If you fly the DA-40, expect to get between 9-15 hours a month. You do the math. Instrument will take 4-6 months and commercial will take 2 months after that. CFI will take 4-6 months as well. Just some notes and observations from somewhere who's been there. I could say more, and happy to if people have questions. My final thought- If you can afford to pay cash, take your money elsewhere and never let anyone dictate your training timeline to you. Ultimately your career is yours and nobody will put your best interests forward except for you.

Came here to get my private pilot and almost finished, CFI went to the airlines, and others took up my training. Thats when things really went to crap. No one knew what a correct log book looked like, re did tons of training, scheduled a check ride and the DPE didn't even start the ride. My log books that were cleared by the CFI (which he charged me to review) were not acceptable to the DPE, he took my $800 and didn't even start the ride. The CFI instead of apologizing acted like I had really messed up because I was supposed to do his job for him apparently. Nothing but ego and pride letting these 23 year olds run the fixed wing show. The power trips that they got on with me was terrible. I am a very mellow, easy to get along with guy but they frustrated me. Told my story to 4 other CFI's and they all said the same thing "that sounds like a true horror story, you got screwed" Paid Platinum $15k, I got upset at the botched check ride meeting, and they said I was belligerent and kicked me out of the school with no refunds offered. I literally had no trouble at all up until check ride day. Super disappointing. I have hired a new CFI and have to go to another airport. The new guys are awesome and offered me a discount because they couldn't believe I was treated so poorly at Platinum. Hire the helicopters with Platinum, Gary is ethical, but stay away from fixed wing!
