A little bit was enough for me, so I was happy that the instructor did the hard stuff, like take off and landing. I was never pushed to do more than I was comfortable with. My husband got his instrument rating here, as well as learning aerobatics (flying upside down, loops and tricks). He is a fan too. (but not a yelper) If you always wanted to try flying but thought it was too difficult or expensive, come here. They have an intro to flying lesson and you can see if it is your thing. They make it very non-intimidating.

This was my second flight lesson ever, since my last one was 3 years ago, this one was an intro…read moreflight. (Last lesson was also intro, different flight school). If you're just doing it for the experience, are dreaming of your licence, or actively pursuing it, a word of advice: communicate with your instructor on what you want to do and see in your lesson. You may not get to land on your first lesson, but if you want to make a radio call, ask if that's okay by your CFI. Compared to the first flight school, this lesson was more in depth and hands on. I got a pre-flight briefing of the instrumentation I can expect in the cockpit, and I got to participate in the full pre-flight checklist. While I had my CFI backing me up, I was also able to steer the plane on the ground during taxi (before and after being in the air). While in the air, my instructor was great about showing me how to fly leve, making proper turns, and explaining a little bit about how to get lined up for landing. Towards the end of the lesson I was able to get some practice taxiing and was able to make some radio calls. Flying a plane is complicated, make no mistake, but it's one of the most amazing experiences that cannot be explained in words, they must be experienced first hand. I'm glad that this flight lesson, even though technically an intro was able to cover so many different elements of general aviation in a hands-on fashion. It goes without saying that my CFI, Jason (I think) was awesome and made my second flight lesson a reminder of why I love flying so much, and dream of getting my pilot's license.

I had begun at ECAC with the goal of completing my last few requirements to complete my private…read morepilot's license and get checkride ready. My friend, who was a flight instructor there, had recommended me to ECAC. With my first instructor, I was surprised by her lack of professionalism and ability to be consistent with plans we set. After a ground lesson didn't cover any of the material we had discussed focusing on in advance, she was unable to explain how what we covered matched the plans we had made. After speaking about this with the chief pilot, Marc Nathanson, he validated these concerns and recommended another instructor and said I should call to ask about getting my money back for the lesson that did not cover what I had agreed on. As soon as I walked into ECAC the next week to meet with my new instructor, I was yelled at by Bob Wall, the manager, in front of clients and instructors. He took my dissatisfaction with the previous instructor personal and mocked me for not already being a pilot, saying I was, "no one compared to the people there." I had done exactly what Marc had told me to do, and was horrified by how I was treated for it. I was there to try and continue as a student at ECAC, but seeing how it was run was embarrassing. It was clear that this was not a place where I could finish my training. While some of the other staff were supportive and sympathized with my concerns, they even recommended that I would get better training at a different flight school. The other reviews which pointed out the poor management of this school were true, and I should have listened to them from the start. I do not recommend this school for its unprofessionalism in management.

She was very willing to teach me the basics using my machine, and she charged at a very reasonable class rate. She provided patterns and fabric. I finished making an snazzy apron yesterday!!! I love how it turned out! I feel very comfortable with using my machine and venturing out with other material types and stitches. Lately, I have been spending time after work into the late hours just to practice with some simple projects. It's addictive to make and create! I highly recommend her if you are looking to learn how to sew with the basics. She can provide a sewing machine or you can bring your own; it's your preference. She has 3 sewing machines available to learn on. She's very patient and friendly and has great ideas! If interested in learning basic sewing, shoot her an email: dlacai06@yahoo.com to see what she has for availability, etc. It's "Sew" Fun! :P
