    Cross country flight LA to Dallas with Meiko.  Great trip and great instructor...

    Five stars. I love training with Meiko. She allows you to grow in a safe environment while letting you push and challenge yourself, without jumping in to rescue you (unless of course you need to be). Subtle guidance to get you on track and a very enjoyable, confidence building experience. I hope to train with her again. I would highly recommend Meiko (Powers Aviation) for anyone wanting to take their flying to the next level. Regards Bobby Giles"

    Flyright Aviation is a fantastic flight school. Luis and John are very passionate and dedicated to…read morethe upkeep of their planes and to get people flying. Luis runs his business with honesty and integrity. It's very noticeable that he cares. I called Luis at the very beginning of February and asked if he would be able to facilitate me getting my private pilots in an accelerated manner. I am from out of town and only had a month of availability to work with. I had a bit of prior flying experience, though it had been years since I last flew. I was definitely rusty. I was also struggling to retain the information from the online ground school platforms so I requested ground instruction. Luis assessed where my skill level, and with my instructor Travis, we came up with a plan to work towards my goal. Travis was thorough, organized, patient, and knowledgeable. He was very dedicated to giving me as much ground and flight instruction that I could handle. And he worked with the ambitious time frame I set for us. The schedule was demanding and rigorous, and there is still so much to learn. But with the quality instruction from Travis and Nikki and Luis's dedication to my success. I can proudly say the I got my private pilots license in a month. With ground instruction, and full flight hours. I have so much gratitude for the flyright team and hope to come back for my next endorsements. Thank you!

    It is truly a hidden gem! This family-owned operation is run with incredible professionalism,…read morepassion, and integrity. Luis (the owner and A&P) and John are absolutely awesome--they manage the school with a perfect balance of structure and support, making it a welcoming and focused environment for any aspiring pilot. Luis has an incredible depth of aviation knowledge, and his teaching style is second to none. He knows how to break complex topics down in a way that makes them easy to understand, whether you're just starting out or advancing your training. He trains professional pilots, not hobbyists--and it shows. If you're not serious or passionate about becoming a pilot, this probably isn't the place for you. But if you are, you won't find better. I earned my ICFI here in just a few weeks, and they keep the process moving--DPE checkride dates are usually only 1-2 weeks out, which is unheard of at most other places. In short, top-tier instruction, honest people, and a school that genuinely wants to see you succeed.

    Flyright Aviation - Took the 152 down to Kidwell airport on a cross country solo.  Soft field landing/takeoff on a real dirt strip.  What a blast!

    I did some training with an instructor in my local area but couldn't quite get the training across…read morethe finish line, so I decided to take some time off work and do nothing but flight school. Jamie was super helpful and flexible in arranging several days where we did nothing but flight training, and I passed my checkride on the first try. He was great at injecting surprises into my training that made me a better pilot. My favorite was when the engine "failed" on takeoff - nobody else had ever done that to me in almost 80 hours of training - and I'm grateful for the knowledge that I can handle any crisis. If I had it to do over again, I'd start off with Fly Accelerated training - just take the time off work and do the training all at once. You'll get it done faster and can broaden your experience with other planes later with local instructors easier than if you are trying to balance your work schedule and flight training and raising kids or whatever else you have on your plate. In the long run you'll save money if you just do it all at once, and Jamie is top-notch.

    Unprofessional, Cocky, Overpriced. Jaime was almost late to every session we had. I smelled alcohol…read moreon his breath and he looked a bit disheveled. The aircraft we used was very old and seemed to have mechanical issues. Asking certain questions is a big no as Jamie will assert his, "know it all", demeanor and act offended. I have flown with better, more professional and more patient instructors. Also, safety is a big must and showing up late with a hang over is NOT good for business.
