    I have to start by admitting that I'm a VERY apprehensive flyer, so much so that plying myself with multiple glasses of wine before any flight is as standard as buckling my seatbelt before take off! Seriously! Augustine was my instructor for the day, he was so knowledgeable and friendly that I didn't even notice we were taking off let alone panic in the air! He took care to explain every check that he was doing before take off and before landing and made everything look super easy! He even let this klutz take control momentarily in the air!! This is an amazing experience, I strongly suggest it to any thrill seeker or any gents looking for a memorable way to propose!!! Definitely worth every cent!

    Got gifted a flight lesson for my birthday and it seriously was so amazing! Everyone was so friendly about getting it scheduled and accommodating. The flight itself was magical! Park was so informative and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this! Definitely a bucket list item!

    Early pre-flight mornings!

    Update! My first solo!!!! Let's GOOOOO! The entire team is so supportive and motivating! Big thanks to my CFI, Chris Peter for getting me to this point. Upward and onward! Check it out Or give them a call to fly!

    I purchased the groupon as a birthday gift for my boyfriend and he absolutely loved it! The scheduling process was simple and we were able to upgrade to a bigger plane so that I could fly as well, for a small fee. Everyone at the front office was extremely friendly and had smiles on their faces. A1 customer service. Our guide, Sacha, made our experience truly unforgettable. He was warm, welcoming, knowledgeable, and very down-to-earth. He gave us a chance to fly over the river and downtown area and was an amazing instructor, very informative and honest. My only suggestion is that if you are someone who gets motion sickness easily, this may not be for you. Although I did, Sacha was very apologetic and helpful in providing suggestions for alleviating the symptoms. This is definitely something I would recommend.!

    I purchased a simulation flight for my stepdad. This experience was amazing. Augustine took his time to explain everything and was charismatic and very friendly and knowledgeable. As a spectator, it was so cool, my stepdad can't stop talking about how cool this experience was. The experience started with a history of Augustine and the business, then we moved to the simulator, and it was nothing short of incredible. The view was amazing and so realistic. We will be back again! Worth every penny!!!

    Awesome experience. The flight instructor Nick was very knowledgeable and personable. He provided my son with amazing flight instruction, allowing him to control the plane and experience a small amount of G's. The whole experience lit a spark in my son that will likely lead to a future in aviation.

    Augustine's the man! A true legend of the skies!

    What a phenomal time out! Take something others may have a phobia over and it turn into an addiction! Augustine is an incredible pilot and for great reasons! He's been flying over 32 years so I felt safe and secure with him right next to me. Strongly recommend this for first timers and I will definitely come back and do this again! I assumed it was going to be a long class, but because it was an "introductory flight", there was no delay in the fun! I urge people to book early morning before it gets hot though. Airplanes don't have air conditioners. Hope everything works out for them and they introduce helicopters into their mix! Don't bother bringing your go-pro out though because of safety reasons, but they welcome cell-phone video and pics. Thanks again and can't wait to come back!

    Awesome experience! JetEXE Rocks!!!

    This was the first flight lesson of my 13-year-old son. For me, as a father, it was a confidence boosting for a pleasant experience to my son, especially after talking to the training in charge, who was also the owner of the institute. Below is from my son's words: I had booked an hour flight session at JetEXE Aviation and it was AMAZING!! This was my first time flying a plane so I was a little nervous but my flight instructor, Mr. Augustine J., made the flight so simple and fun for me. I was able to fly over and see downtown Sacramento. It was an experience that I believe everybody should have.

    Kevin N.

    Had an incredible experience flying with Augustine! It has always been a dream for me to fly and hope to do it again in the near future. I was able to take control of the plane a few times with clear instructions. It was alot of fun!

Steve told me that would not be a problem as long as I was okay paying a small fee. As we were getting closer, I started looking at the yelp reviews and got kind of nervous, but decided to go through with it anyways. The day of the flight, we got to the airport and waited for the flight instructor to get back from a different flight in the tables and chairs in front of the office. When he got there, he was very nice and grabbed headphones for the flight, chatted a bit, and we were off! The entire experience was amazing! The flight instructor told my boyfriend everything he was doing and explained what all of the things on the dash meant. He told him every move he did with his own joystick and explained everything that was happening over the air control radio. We got very lucky with great weather for the flight and an incredible teacher who I don't remember the name of. Overall this was an amazing experience and nothing could have made it better. The flight instructor was amazing, helpful, and cool, and the flight was super fun. I definitely recommend doing flight training through Executive Flyers because I would absolutely do it again! Make sure to get a pilot's log book before you fly so the instructor can sign off on your hours!

It took me 5 1/2 years to get back into the left seat. I met with Ty and he suggested that I take my BFR check ride with Nick. From day 1 Nick was professional and a clearly skilled CFI. He understood some of my hesitancy and we went on my pace. After shaking the cobwebs off I was able to complete the BFR without any issues. There are a lot of flight schools out there so make sure you do the research. Not every CFI is for you, the student. Don't ever forget that you are the one spending a lot of money to fly..so you may as well fly with the best. For full disclosure, there was an issue with my billing but the front office took care of it within about 1 day and were extremely apologetic, but at the same time very professional. The aircraft are much newer than some other schools (N441QF is a 1997 C172), (N87GV a 1996 C172) and (N124CE the 180HP C172S). THey are maintained in house by the schools mechanics. I'm definitely going to rent my planes here and come back for additional training while I am in my instrument phase. Keep up the good work!

    I met with Carter in person 3 weeks in advance of my first training lesson to check out the flight…read moreschool and express my needs as a student. When asked if his school was able to provide an Accelerated Multiengine Commercial Add-On in one week he said, "yes, we can get that done." Excitedly I purchased the training materials from his school, booked a hotel, and studied feverishly as I awaited the big day. First day of training. I wake up early, hop in the car, and drive 3.5 hours to the school. I show up and he is missing several documents I provided on my initial visit. Not overly professional, but I choose not to let it wreck the day--I let it slide. Next he tells me the airplane has a leaky sump and will be fixed momentarily. It's aviation and maintenance issues happen--I won't make a fuss over it. We make small talk and discuss aircraft systems for a while. 2 hours pass and we are losing daylight. I inquire whether or not we will fly that day, and whether we will accomplish the training in the promised timeframe. His answer disappointed me: Only after showing up for my first lesson did he tell me we'd be unable to schedule a checkride with for 4+ months due to DPE availability. I felt misled because 4+ months did not meet the "accelerated" timeframe that was promised over several phone calls and an in-person meeting. I expressed my displeasure and told him we had talked about this being a one-week program. He said he would call around to try to secure a sooner date, and would contact me the next day with an answer. I cancel the hotel, drive another 3.5 hours back home, and wait to hear from him. It's been several days and that call never came. I feel disappointed in the service I received. Had Carter communicated the proper expectations on the front end, and followed through with contacting me as he said he would, there would be no hard feelings. Instead I am left feeling as though I had been bamboozled. The only saving grace is I discovered this prior to dropping several thousand dollars on training expense. If you are looking for a flight school, I hope my experience can serve as a cautionary tale. From what little time I spent there, it appeared they are equipped to adequately provide training to introductory students, but if you are seeking advanced ratings in a specific timeframe I would recommend looking elsewhere.

I just got the invoice and they charge 75$ per flight to sign your logbook. That generously takes 5 minutes. Often they forget to do it or are so stacked up with poor scheduling they leave it for another day. That's 900$ an hour for activities that never took place! Such a scam! The planes here are unsafe by most standards, they are even rigged wrong. My first day here the mechanic told me he isn't provided a tensiononmeter so the planes don't fly true. They also have out of date electronics and no autopilot. Rob Belme the lead flight instructor here is a slob who trashed his students publicly to other students, he admits trashing students to FAA DPE's, he publicly states how proud he is to run off or wash out credit private students he also plays games in his phone while students are under the hood, not only is this dangerous but the hourly rate is $530. Management even admits his obvious bias but makes no effort to fix it. I've overheard Rob Belme trash female students specifically and gay students and when I reported that to ATP, they kicked me out. This guy holds meetings in the training center where he speaks of defacating on students cars, puting snuss pouches in their sodas to make them sick. I have never been in such an unprofessional and demented training environment. Please consider any other flight school. They will lie about their planes, their instructors, and their timelines. You will pay upfront, and you will regret it. And worse, their lead instructor brags about trashing his students to FAA so as to make sure they never become pilots. Consider yourself warned.

I have flown with the lead flight instructor, Rob Belme, many times and only have good things to say about him. He has helped me in the air and on the ground. He has sat down with me many times in order to explain whatever I had questions about and never complained about doing so. He has an extensive knowledge about aviation and is able to simplify the information so it is easy to understand. He prioritizes safety over everything. Rob, along with the other instructors, want to help those in this program to succeed in making aviation a career. I would recommend this program to those who have the time and desire to become a professional pilot.
