If you haven't flown an 1960's twin Comanche, definitely get familiar prior to training here…read more These guys will take your money, get you flying and have a check ride scheduled on the fourth day, which sounds good in theory; but doesn't work if you're completely new to twins and the Comanche. 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!! (I've got over 1400hrs TT, IR and commercial)

Knocked out the CAMEL add-on in five days. Ground school and a flight on Sunday. Flew Monday -…read moreWednesday and then had the check ride early Thursday morning. They want to see you succeed. 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 ________________________________

Horrible horrible horrible customer service. I should have looked at the 2 reviews they only have…read moreprior to buying the certificate. I read Esther's review and ours was exactly the same!!! Three of us took off work and came in after the lady on the phone said we were confirmed. We arrived and were greeted not well, and none of the staff for the business was friendly at all. We sat and waited for over 20 minutes only to be told, "oops the guy didn't show up" and "he could have been in an accident, he isn't answering" So we were upset and said we wanted to talk to a manager. Well, "Paul" was called and then we heard him say that "he messed up, and didn't schedule anyone for my fiance's flight. So, we were very upset as we drove a long way to get there and wasted our day. We never received any apology or any "hey how about a longer flight or a better anything" just a "why don't you call and reschedule" As the days followed this ridiculous diatribe of emails, they finally just gave us a refund, and said this happens frequently, and a small story about a guy who was "rescheduled 3 times, and stayed patient after no one showed up 3 times" Well, I for one give EXCELLENT customer service, and I desire that of any business I frequent. This is a horrible place, that has NO customer service, and has pilots in training taking people on their flights. Lastly, the price is the same on groupon as it is on their website. I have photos to prove this.

If you're even thinking about learning how to fly a helicopter, this is the place. The instructor…read morewas great and very patient for my 1st time out. Buzzing around Glendale while taking the controls was amazing. We even did an auto rotation which isn't as bad as you would think. The hardest thing to do was maintain a hover position. Highly recommended.

Fly with the best; Fly Airwest…read more No truer words for our Havasupai adventure for our flight out of Supai Village on 8/28/23. The helicopter arrived shortly after 9 AM for its dropping off & picking up & we were on our flight shortly after 10 AM. While I was looking forward to the flight out, I totally underestimated the magical experience of this flight both due to the beauty of the canyon but also because of our pilot, Keith. I was fortunate enough to sit in the front, having a front row view as we ascended out of this breathtaking desert paradise, leaving me awestruck & speechless. Keith was so friendly & navigated us safely up to the Hilltop with expertise & ease, pointing out interests along the way. This helicopter ride was so much more than transporting us to the Hilltop. Keith made this an extension of our adventure, he was a superb guide sharing his perspective & appreciation for the beautiful land that was below us, landing us & our amazing trip on an all time high! Top-notch service! My heart continues to soar from this magical place & an experience of a lifetime, flying with AirWest. My only complaint... The flight was too short! My thanks also to Stacy for her customer support & following up with me. A+ grade for this remarkable & memorable service!

I have used this business on commercial property mechanical lifts in the past and had spectacular…read moreservice. Will be using them again next month. Friendly, helpful, reliable.
