I took a Discovery Flight in the Redbird Simulator a few months ago. It was an amazing experience! Not only did I learn a lot about flying in just an hour, but I also got a sense of how friendly, professional, and knowledgeable the staff is. The facility was clean and modern. Diana, Fabio, and Daniel made sure I was comfortable, enjoyed my time, and got a great taste for flying. They even asked if I wanted my picture taken so I could brag to friends and family! :) I can't wait to get back and fly a real plane. I can't get over how affordable and accessible it is. Whether you want to fly for fun or to become a commercial pilot, this is the place to train! read more

History

Established in 2017.

In April 2017, High Flight Academy leased 475 Airport Road on the Pittsburgh-Butler Regional Airport campus. With many decades of experience, the founding team members set out to make aviation training practical, accessible and enjoyable for Western Pennsylvania. High Flight Academy has since developed into one of the most advanced private training facilities in Western Pennsylvania. We provide first-flight lessons to new aspiring pilots and continuing education to professional pilots, and everything in between. Our students can choose to train in one of our Cessna aircraft, or gain experience in our Redbird FMX's electric motion platform and wrap-around visual simulator. This simulator is the only one available for public use in Western Pennsylvania. At High Flight Academy, you can take a Discovery Flight with an experienced flight instructor, build your competency and currency in a state-of-the-art simulator, and even become a certified pilot.

11/10/21 I came here for my first helicopter tour…read moreexperience ever and it was amazing! I came here thanks to a friends' gift certificate that was given to me for my birthday. It was one of the best gifts I've ever received. Natalie is such a great host and helpful in explaining the process for my trip. I absolutely loved this experience and will cherish it for the rest of my life. The pilot, Chris is not only a pilot for the Pittsburg Heli, but also a trained instructor who can assist in gaining your hours for a pilots license. The hanger is so cute with rustic decorations, that I would love to book an event in the future here. It's perfect for a get together or even a small event like a birthday celebration or small wedding. Maximum guest occupancy is for 50 people. So many awesome experiences today, I can't wait to go back!

It was a great experience. I was able to see so many things from the air including the river, the buildings downtown, Phipps Conservatory, the Cathedral of Learning, Oakland, Squirrel Hill, The Waterfront, Sandcastle, and so much more. Very professional, and I felt very safe. Would love to fly with Pittsburgh Heli again some time ... Cheers!
