From Rick the owner, to Sean the chief pilot, Judy and Leann at the front desk, they are all very welcoming. I have been there since private pilot and am currently finishing up my CFI and couldn't be happier. I want to give a huge recommendation and shout out to my instructor Christian. I was one of the lucky ones who didn't have to hop from instructor to instructor until I found a good one. I was paired with him from the start and he is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, professional and safe pilot. He has over 10,000 hours of experience and yet is still somehow able to be extremely passionate about teaching new students. I felt like I got the attention I needed from him as if I were his first student! His training was extremely efficient, and thanks to him I am a very well trained, experienced and competent pilot. If you come to Arizona flight training center to train, I highly recommend you ask for Christian! I have no doubt you will receive proper training to above and beyond the standards!

The level of professionalism and dedication to the students I've experienced from both Bryce and Christian have been extremely valuable to my development as a pilot.

What an awesome flight school. I earned my PPL here not too long ago and I have no complaints. My…read moreinstructor was the best and all the other instructors were incredibly helpful. They worked with my schedule to get me in for flight lessons during the weekends and were available to answer questions throughout the week. Greg, the owner, is also a DPE. I was very nervous going into my checkride, but he eased my nerves and it felt more like a conversation than an exam. I highly recommend him as a DPE if you're looking to schedule a checkride. If you're in the Phoenix area and want to learn to fly, this is the school! I'll be sticking around for my instrument rating and beyond.

Choosing Fly Goodyear has been one of the best decisions of my aviation journey. The school offers superior flight training in a professional yet friendly environment that makes every lesson both challenging and enjoyable. My assigned Gold Seal instructor has been outstanding--demanding higher standards from me with every flight while providing the support and knowledge needed to reach those goals. The balance between professionalism, safety, and camaraderie is what sets this school apart. Whether you are brand new to aviation or, like me, pursuing advanced certifications, Fly Goodyear provides the quality instruction and atmosphere that makes success possible. I highly recommend this school to anyone serious about flying.

They really don't care whether you're actually ready for the check ride. It's a 'assembly line' mentality. I hadn't even practiced a single engine approach by check ride time!!

My instructor and was great to fly with. A couple of the mornings I hopped in the back seat to observe another guy getting his add-on. Highly recommend doing that if it works out - it gives you a great chance to observe and learn while not having to fly the aircraft. Spend some time before showing up reviewing the information under the "PA-30 downloads" section. Also - for those coming from out of town (like I was) - recommend you familiarize yourself with the Phoenix VFR sectional, KDVT airfield procedures, and KGEU (Glendale - we did lots of touch-and-go's there). It's extremely busy airspace, so it helps to be familiar with the area. Foreflight on the iPad was a big help. Thanks again guys ________________________________

He's a true people person who actually listens and understands how I learn, then adjusts his teaching to match. That made every lesson productive and comfortable. He's knowledgeable, calm, and safety focused, and the way he explains things makes challenging concepts much easier to understand. I was able to earn my Private Pilot License with Ben, and I'm now continuing my training with him as I work toward my IFR rating. His briefings and debriefs are always thorough and constructive, and I never feel rushed or talked over. Everyone else I've met at Leopard Aviation has also been awesome. The other instructors, including Logan, are always friendly and take the time to say hi when I walk in, which genuinely makes me want to keep coming back. I'd highly recommend Leopard Aviation to anyone looking for high quality instruction in a welcoming, professional environment.

She spent over 6 months at Sierra Charlie Aviation and because of their incompetence, lack of awareness and poor scheduling, I pulled my daughter out of their program and sent her to Scottsdale Executive Flight Training. She was paired up with her instructor Maddie Moles, whom I cant say enough good things about. Under Maddie's supervision and instruction, my daughter, Calie has far exceeded and excelled at this flight school. They keep you informed, aware of progress and have a plan in place to keep their students moving forward at all times. Not only was Maddie instrumental in Calie's progress, the Chief pilot and head of Cessna training, Nick Lane, went above and beyond to make sure Calie was ready to pass her check ride without issues. Calie is looking forward to continuing training here at Scottsdale Executive!

We got to know about it once we reached the airport. Anyways we had to reschedule and as per availability, got for 2 weeks later. My wife loved it and it was a nice experience overall. Not easy to handle Cessna's but worth the once-in-a-lifetime experience. The pilot who flew with my wife was nice and welcoming. He engaged in small talk and did not let my wife bore me during the flight by answering all the queries. Taking away one star since I had to followup multiple times for the downgrade difference refund.

I ended up working with them to get the rating done. Jonathan, the head of the flight school, was the CFI I'd be working with. I'm so glad I did. He was able to teach to my learning style and we worked really well together. We met early and stayed late to get me ready for the check-ride. Coming from northern California, I booked out a week to accomplish the task. Unfortunately, the DA-42 Twin Star broke. A broken fuel injector in one of the engines made it impossible to train in the limited time frame. I had to leave and come back. On my second trip back, the night before the check-ride, I got news of a friends passing in an aviation incident. Thanks to Jonathan's prep, the following day, I was able to pass the oral portion of the check-ride with flying colors and discontinued on the flying portion. I re-booked for a return visit. Upon coming out, the aircraft had an other issue during one of our flights. Sawyer's in house mechanics both times went above and beyond to get the aircraft back in service but the parts needed to be special ordered from Europe. Being in aviation and an aircraft owner, things like this just happen no matter how well an aircraft is maintained. Throughout this process, I was able to witness a side of aviation that most don't get to see. Sawyer's maintenance team rocks and worked their butt off to make sure things are tip top. Even though I wasn't able to finish my multi-engine commercial add on at Sawyer, they did take care of me. Jonathan built a foundation for me to finish a few months later back in northern California and I earned my ratings. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Sawyer Flight academy because not only did they treat me well, they training I received was top notch.

I've had great experiences, expectations have been exceeded, my instructors are professional and extremely knowledgeable. Easy access to DPE's which has saved me a lot of time and stress. I've heard horror stories from other people who have gone to some of the larger schools, and I'm lucky that I can't relate. Planes are maintained really well, great avionics, safe environment to learn. I've never felt pressured to do a flight that I wasn't comfortable with while still safely expanding my limits. I love that they tailor every part of the process to the individual. My instructors, Riggs, Andrew and Kyle are top notch. Even instructors that aren't assigned to work with me are willing to help and answer questions. Alex is my go to whenever I have a question! She is probably the most knowledgeable pilot I've ever met. I can't imagine where I would be in my aviation journey if I hadn't taken a second to look at the reviews. I'm so grateful I ended up at American Flyers!
