The pilot went above and beyond to make everything perfect. A huge heartfelt thank you to him. It was an incredible experience! The birthday surprise was a success, exceeding all expectations. The only suggestion I have is to add some sort of sign at the entrance to indicate that "Corsair Aviation" is located in the building. It would make it easier for your clients to find you.

I was getting ready to schedule a flight with this company until I read their release of liability:…read more "You acknowledge and agree to indemnify and hold harmless Corsair Aviation, LLC and its officers, partners, agents, employees, parent corporations and subsidiaries from and against all claims, allegations, demands, liabilities, fines, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and any amounts paid in settlement) arising out of or related to: (i) your participation in flight activities (ii) the breach by Corsair Aviation, LLC of any of its material obligations under any Agreement, or (iii) the negligence, gross negligence, bad faith, intentional or willful misconduct of Corsair Aviation, LLC, it employees or other representatives or affiliates. You agree and assume full responsibility and risk in participating in the flight activities." Among other things, you must agree to hold them harmless due to their negligence, gross negligence, bad faith, intentional or willful misconduct. How scary is it that they make you agree to that? Hard pass.

From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my strengths and weaknesses, tailoring his instruction to ensure I fully grasped every concept and could safely perform all maneuvers. He never rushed the process and made sure I was fully prepared before allowing me to solo. Patrick was always patient, thorough, and supportive. He answered all my questions, addressed any doubts I had, and guided me through every step of my training--including preparing me for my checkride. Thanks to his dedication, I am now a Private Pilot! If you're just starting out and unsure where to go for flight training, I highly recommend Patrick. He is certified to train pilots at all levels and is truly committed to his students' safety and success!

If you're looking to achieve your aviation goals within a great airport training environment and at an exceptional school, without breaking the bank, please consider CFI.

Prior to beginning the process of being…read morere-certified to fly, I had not piloted an aircraft since shortly after receiving my Private Pilot's License in 1977 and had no idea of what to expect. Working with Camarillo Flight Instruction, I was thoroughly impressed! Initially, I contacted several flight training schools in November, 2012. I explained my unique circumstances of desiring to complete the FAA required Flight Review. One seemed more interested in keeping their not-well maintained aircraft in the air and at another the instructor spoke more about his ambition to acquire an airline pilot job than discssing my goals. I took time to figure out finances and choose the right place to train. I chose Camarillo Flight Instruction because they inquired about my intentions and provided a plan to get me there. This gesture proved that Camarillo Flight Instruction did not simply see me as a potential customer, but as a fellow aviation colleague. In addition, the instructors at Camarillo Flight Instruction are professional, dedicated and enthusiastic. Christian Straubinger was my instructor and he patiently worked with me to complete my training in an efficient manner. I flew my family recently in one of their late model, well-maintained aircraft and I owe the trip's success to the training. There passion and dedication helped me acquire confidence in my profenciency. My experience far exceeded any expectations. They run a fantastic program and I am grateful for their guidance and will continue toward my Instrument Training with them this week! I highly recommend Camarillo Flight Instruction to others pursuing flight training! Best Regards, Pastor Kenneth Earl

With Logans great patient instruction I was eventually able to have smooth landings. He teaches me to be looking out the window and not to over rely on my instruments. The best thing about flying with Logan is he is making me a better pilot.
