Let me preface this review by stating the fact that the week I was scheduled to be at Double Eagle,…read morethe weather was not perfect. But, it was for a CPL rating and the weather was very flyable. Based on schedule, and the 3 other reviews, I decided to go to Double Eagle for my CPL rating. I was told that the class consists of a dedicated instructor with 2 hrs in the airplane and 6 hrs ground school every day, with the practical test on the 6th day. I had a few conversations with them, scheduled the date, paid the (non-refundable) deposit, and was told the CFI would contact me with the details of preparation, what to bring, etc. The week before the class I still hadn't heard from the instructor. When I called them, they told me that the instructor assigned to me had quit the day before without any notice and they would assign me a new instructor. I was told that the new instructor was an F16 pilot/instructor. This last part seems really odd since during my discussions with the CFI, he had recently did his CPL (in a C152) and was currently taking a class in College Algebra. I have been a pilot since the 1990's and have owned multiple airplanes, complex & high-performance, that I have flown all over the U.S. The CFI was treating me like a new Private Pilot candidate that he was afraid was going to run us into the ground. In the "ground school" portion, he spent more time talking about flying a traffic pattern than anything else. Opposed to the "dedicated instructor" I was supposed to receive, I was also being cycled into the CFI's schedule with a local PPL student. Instead of starting on Monday, as the schedule stated, the CFI wanted me to be there 9 am Sunday morning to start. That, of course, messed up my whole schedule since I was traveling to Tucson for the training. As for the time allocated to me, instead of the 2/6 (air/ground) per day I received 2.2/2.8 on the first day, 1.4 (all in the pattern)/4.1 on the second day, and 0/2.6 on the third day. On Wednesday morning, with the weather at KTUS stating ceilings of 5500-6000 ft and the practice area clear (picture from when I was driving home is attached), he said the weather was too bad to get the flying time in to be ready for the checkride and wanted to reschedule. I did finish up the CPL elsewhere, not at a "bootcamp" school, with a very smooth practical test. Considering the cost and time, this was the most expensive flight instruction that I have every had and I left with them not even offering me a break on the rescheduled dates, or the option to pick-up where we left off.

Review of Arizona Aero-Tech's 5-Day IFR Finish-Up Course…read more I signed up for the five-day IFR finish-up course at Arizona Aero-Tech after seeing an advertisement in the AOPA magazine, promising an accelerated program for pilots ready to complete their IFR training. With the required prerequisites met, I was excited to finish the final steps toward my IFR certification. Unfortunately, my experience was far from what was advertised and left me extremely disappointed. Here's why: 1. Lack of Structure & Planning Upon arrival on day one, I expected a clear and structured curriculum, especially since this was supposed to be an accelerated course. However, there was no set schedule, no clear roadmap to guide me through the process. Instead, the entire approach seemed unprepared and ad hoc. I was told, "we'll figure it out as we go," which is completely unacceptable for an accelerated course designed to get a pilot ready for a check ride in just five days. If you're enrolling in a course like this, you should expect a clear plan to meet your goals. There was none. 2. Inexperienced and Unmotivated Instructor When I signed up, I specifically told Rosa, the person handling my enrollment, that I didn't want a very young CFI or one who was close to leaving for the airlines. Unfortunately, I was assigned Sam S., who had already met the required flight hours to leave for the airlines, and his attitude reflected that. It was clear from the start that he was unmotivated and saw this course as just another stepping stone before he could leave teaching for a more lucrative airline career. His lack of enthusiasm, combined with the way he complained about not making enough money to one of the other instructors, set a negative tone for the entire experience. Instead of being a coach and mentor to help me succeed, it felt like I was just another hour on his logbook that he was counting down to the finish. I left feeling like I wasn't getting the attention or dedication I needed to succeed. 3. Money-Grab Tactics It became apparent that Arizona Aero-Tech wasn't focused on student success, but rather on trying to upsell me. After the first couple of days, they suggested extending my course from five days to ten, which felt more like a way to milk extra money out of me than a genuine attempt to meet my needs as a student. Adding to this frustration, the check ride was scheduled for day six, but due to scheduling conflicts, I was told the DEP (Designated Pilot Examiner) wouldn't be available until February 2025--rendering the check ride impossible within the course's original timeframe. 4. Lack of Accountability I'm someone who takes my flight training seriously, and I expected Arizona Aero-Tech to do the same. Unfortunately, the lack of structure, the unprofessional attitude of my instructor, and the overall lack of care demonstrated by the staff made it clear that the school's primary focus was on making money rather than actually helping students reach their goals. This was a money grab, pure and simple. 5. Conclusion: Would I Recommend Arizona Aero-Tech? Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Arizona Aero-Tech. The lack of a structured curriculum, the disengaged and unprofessional instructor, and the overall feeling that this was more about collecting tuition than student success made this a very disappointing experience. If you're looking for a professional, structured, and motivated environment to finish up your IFR training, I would suggest looking elsewhere.

The helicopter was comfortable and afforded good views all around. We flew about 500 ft above the planes so with a good zoom lens I was able to get some great shots of the planes. You can see some of my shots attached to this review. The pilot was very accommodating and offered to fly circles around any plane I was interested in getting a more detailed picture of. As an aerospace geek this was a trip that was on my lifetime bucket list. I am more than happy with the tour and can now happily check it off my list and have approximately 200 photos as a reminder of my trip.
