    If you're looking for a Part 61 flight school that values flexibility, quality instruction, and a…read moresupportive environment, this is it. Great staff all around. Aircraft scheduling is straightforward and flexible, which makes a huge difference when balancing flying and your daily life. The instructors are experienced, approachable, and easy to learn from. There's no intimidation here, just solid instruction in a relaxed but professional environment. Between the aircraft rentals and training options, they're also connected with a cafe. You can grab a bite to eat and unwind a bit before your next flight!

    Not sure where all the 5-star reviews came from, but my experience was far from 5-star, it was…read morehorrible. I should have known there were going to be issues when I had a hard time booking a discovery flight. I wanted the flight on a certain date, so I wanted to book almost 3 months in advance to guarantee the date. First, I went to the location, but no one was there and a young guy who worked in the same building the place is located told me that no one was there yet, even though they were supposed to have been open over an hour earlier. When I asked him what time they usually arrived, he said around 12 or so, he called it more of a "retirement job". I finally did get to speak to someone, and they told me that they didn't book out that far and to call back a few weeks before the date that I wanted. I did get it booked but not for the date I wanted, it was a birthday gift and i didn't want to chance not getting that date, so I planned something else for that day. The date came for the flight, and it got cancelled due to winds, no problem, I'm not a meteorologist, so we rescheduled. The day of the flight they cancelled again. This time they said storms were in the area. The weather was perfect that day! Not a cloud in the sky and no bad weather for hundreds of miles. I CAN read a radar and a weather report. I asked for a refund and got the runaround for over a month. I had to send a demand for payment letter before I got any real response. I finally did get a refund, of course they claimed that the gift certificate was for me (even though it states from me to someone else), and charged me fees. But, at least I got most of my money back and know to stay away from this company! Horrible all the way around.

    It had been a long time since I've gone flying so I thought it might be fun to take up one of their…read moreplanes along with one of their instructors. A very pleasant experience as their planes seem to be very well kept and my instructor was a very pleasant and experienced young man. This is really a great place for flight training or to rent a plane if you already have your ticket.

    I was a student at Eagles View back in 2000. I had a great experience there. Due to work…read morecommitments, marriage, kids, etc. I stopped flying. Recently (2013) for a Christmas present I wanted to purchase a gift certificate for my father who has his private pilot but hasn't flown in many years. When I called I spoke to the owner Priscilla who was very helpful in answering questions about what airplane would "fit" my father the best, as he's gained a few pounds since his flying days! We agreed on the plane and I moved forward with the purchase. I was pleased to hear that the gift certificate was able to be emailed to me, which saved me the trip out to the airport a few days before Christmas. Here's the best part about my experience... Priscilla called me back and told me that there was no need for me to use my credit card. Apparently I had left some money on my account from when I was a student there and she would just use that credit. Remember...I haven't flown there in 13 years! Talk about a reputable business owner! Her response was, no need to use your credit card...Merry Christmas. I don't think you can ask for anything more in a small business owner than someone who is honest and upstanding, and that has been my experience with Eagles View. I'm not one to post reviews much, but this experience left me feeling like I should do my part to let others know of my experience.

    I was asked to photograph a friend's new plane as he flew it in from Pittsburgh. I had a chance to…read moreexperience how well run the organization is. Plus the staff is welcoming, professional and helpful. I watched lots of students practicing take offs and landings for over 3 hours. Melanie, the manager in the office made me feel welcome and she even told me when my friend was arriving using Flightaware software. Then, she walked me to the perfect spot to photograph his landing. Wow!

    If you need to go somewhere and you wish to leave exactly when you want and you want to go to the…read moremost convenient airport possible then this is the way to go. Keep in mind small airports are all over the place many people live less than a mile from one and have no idea what it's even there., look it up you'd be surprised. Because they're not flying huge jets, or (even small ones) that need to land very fast and need much longer runways, they can kinda land wherever they (you) want. Now we're not talking about $10 million plus private jets so the price is actually reasonable, you'd be surprised. If you split it among some friends it's even better (obviously). The planes are incredibly well-maintained I rent super reliable, elegantly simple propeller driven and top of the line for their class. As a pilot myself, I rent planes from them and the main reason is how well they are maintained. For those who are nervous, remember your pilot wants to live too. The airport is overseen by a military pilot who is incredibly fastidious, so again the planes are top notch maintained to every screw/rivet and piece of plastic in the interior. Next time you've got a 3-10+ (+/-) drive Consider private flight. It also makes you feel good like you've really achieve something in life. Also because they don't fly high, relatively speaking like large "Wide-body" Jets (737/A310 etc.), you have a beautiful view at all times. TL;DR This is a wonderful way to travel, cost effective as well.

    The worst flight school ever. They will jerk you around and milk you for as long as they can…read more I spent 2 years of time and money working towards my private pilot at this flight school. After completing all my requirements, they told me I needed to improve landings, maneuvers, and procedures. The flight instructor became an issue, and when I asked for a different instructor, the school refused. The school's owner kept telling me that I needed to study more before the school would sign off for my check ride. This, even though I passed the FAA written exam with a grade of 92 and passed repeated mock orals. In addition, their airplanes are old, most from the late 1960s and early 1970s, and not in good shape. Many have issues such as the flap indicator being inoperative or the flap switch sticking, the inoperable turn coordinator, problems with the attitude indicator, and inoperable navigation lights and strobes. You'll get nowhere near a private pilot certificate with this school. - there are much better and more honest flight schools in the area. Then I went to a well-known flight school that had two separate instructors access my abilities - that school determined I was ready for my check ride.

    Steer clear. There are much better flight schools in the area. This place is a money pit…read more They milked my child for months and never got him even close to getting his license. I was told by a third party they only graduated one student last year and use him as a 'poster boy' to get people to sign up for endless lessons.
