    I went for an introductory flight in his powered hang glider or trike. We went over spooner and…read morethen along the Tahoe west rim then down to Washoe lake. It seems to be as close to a flying like a bird as one can get. I thought it was worth the money and Paul is very professional and was patient answering my novice questions. I am seriously thinking about getting one and having Paul teach me how to fly it.

    Paul Hamilton is a certified sport pilot instructor, inventor, aviation book author and aircraft…read moreowner. As a 1,400 hr. private pilot, I went to him in April 2017 to complete my biannual flight review as well as to gain some experience with a modern EFIS-equipped cockpit and to understand the Sport Pilot rating requirements on behalf of my neighbor who wants to re-start his work towards an eventual aviation career after having stopped his training elsewhere after four lessons. Paul's knowledge extends far beyond the Sport Pilot certificate -- he has in-depth knowledge of all categories of airplane ratings and operations. But, most-importantly, he impressed me as one of the 5% or so of flight instructors who had developed a solid method of teaching and who adheres to that proven method and style. 95% of flight instructors have no problem aviating, but they seem to struggle with teaching techniques. Paul is excellent at teaching in my estimation. Flying the Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) is a very economical way of building hours, or, like I needed, getting familiar with the modern electronic flight deck. His aircraft are Garmin-equipped, so the interface will be familiar to those who have older, non-EFIS-equipped panels and who are thinking of upgrading. Some time in the not too distant future, I can foresee the support infrastructure for analog instruments falling apart, so those of use who own aircraft need to get ready for the day. Congratulations, Paul for a great day flying. My two-hour BFR lasted 3.5 hours because I was so comfortable with Paul.

Bryan and Cheryl--the owners--got into this business for their love of aviation and it really shows. Huge brownie points for the fact that they have 5 (!!!) identical Cessna 172s that they maintain with an in-house mechanic.

Our…read moreaircraft are owned by the company, maintained in house and are very fuel efficient. These 3 factors are how we can offer great aircraft to you at prices that are better than the competition with equivalent or in most cases better Avionics. We value our instructors. While our instruction rates are lower than our competitors, we compensate our instructors at the same rate or better than other schools. Our low overhead structure allows for this. With our scheduling software you and your instructor can set up everything together and there is no need for multiple office personnel, but, for times when office or other administrative needs arise, they are handled by the owners personally. The flight school is open 24/7. We also offer aircraft rentals to those who hold a private pilot license and above. Feel free to stop by for a tour, talk with the owner, chat with a CFI, check out the airplanes and see the difference in value for yourself.
