I finished up my PPL and have continued flying with Phoenix, I have tried other schools @ KSPK and…read morewas the most satisfied with Phoenix. They balance out there students with plane availability the best I have seen, they will turn away prospect students to maintain availability. They do a very good job keeping the planes in the air , I have only had one flight canceled and I believe I am around 80 HRS of flight time with them. I will continue to fly with them and work toward more ratings. I have both flown with a club and a larger school out of U42 and would highly recommend Phoenix.

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.

Tiedown is $5/night but waived if you buy full service fuel. When we arrived, the lineman approached us with an ice chest full of complimentary water & sodas. He assisted in pushing the plane back and tying it down. We just missed our rental car arrival cutoff for Enterprise....which is down the street and will come pick you up. But LEA had some Hertz cars on site and got us a vehicle immediately. They were very helpful and courteous. When we departed 3 days later, they checked to see if there was anything I needed for the trip back home...like more water/soda. I would definitely recommend them to anyone flying into the Salt Lake City area in a private or corporate aircraft.
