For the past 60 days I have been researching flight schools in the bay area to obtain my sport…read morepilot license. Not every flight school in the area offers this new, exciting, limited license and I am very thankful that Red Sky Aviation offers it. I had a few e-Mail conversations with Red Sky including speaking with the owner Bob. This past weekend my wife and I visited the flight school and I spoke with Laura who is the daughter of the owner. She was nice and helpful and made arrangements for me to speak with a former student and my prospective flight instructor Pete. I was so happy Red Sky quickly connected me both with their former student and flight instructor. A company that says what they will do and actually deliver are already leap years ahead of many. Pete my future flight instructor sounded great! We had a very nice phone conversation and he seems to fit my ideal profile of a teacher perfectly. I live near San Jose and while Livermore can be a Bay area traffic h*ll of a destination depending on the time of day, I am looking very forward to begin my training with Pete on the Aeronca Champion at Red Sky Aviation!

A business that does not have the common courtesy to commit or to just say sorry we can't help ANY pilot that wants to use their own airplane for any type of instruction or review.
