The structure was easily laid out on what needs to be known to be a smart and safe pilot flying multiple engines. There is an entire layout of documents to help you get started, after; the ground instruction I had with Kelly and Zachary shows not only their deep understanding of their aircraft and physics behind multiple engines but also you can sense their love of flying. Kelly is understanding of my hectic schedule and creating/changing flights at a moments notice to ensure I can still fly. Absolute great program for anyone looking to get their CMEL addon, or start their flight training as a student pilot!

Note that their Redbird is a BATD so read your Instrument rating ACS table to SEE the limited items a BATD is FAA approved to DO and COUNT for...rating and otherwise...like NO IPC's...a BATD does none of that. Next, my first visit we talked about their Aztec twin which does not often fly...and that the only MEI allowed to instruct in it is the boss/the owner...He is a high time airline pilot. My visit days ago "we sold the Aztec we have NO plan to buy or lease or in any way add/bring on ANY twin again". So no multi ratings and no multi recurrency like 3 multi engine landings to be 90 day multi current. Right now in the valley, this is common. AT KCHD same story, Chandler Air Service has a Aztec but it's been in a major annual for updates too for over a year and their (a week ago) Chief flight instructor says it'll be in it's 1+ year of annual a lot longer...Few schools have a twin and none have a REAL twin- over 200hp and conventional spin props...So if you hope to fly a Gulfstream or a Challenger jet FAR91 or FAR135 forget that. No good operator of FAR91 or FAR135 high end jets wants a pilot who cannot handle a engine out when it's 250 or 350hp and the props are conventional ie: both spin the same direction....so that Vmc is a big deal...Like is the case with a Aztec or Baron or CE310...or a Chieftain...If you are skilled at engine out in such twins, you will be considered for a SIC job with a operator with Lears and Falcons and maybe a older Gulfstream...Other than you buddy being the owner or Chief pilot of the jet, no, you won't get the job with Duchess or Seminole or Twin Comanche hours...not going to happen. 2025 folks

I have waited way to long to get my single engine privet pilot license, it was a dream of mine…read moresince I was a little boy. I always looked around for a friend to do the course with and for the best school to learn at. I finally found the best school but never found a friend that will put their money where their mouth is! First let me tell you about the experience - In one word fantastic! Its fun and challenging! You would be surprised how bad you do under the slightest of pressure, I am a skydiver and do pretty well in the air but flying showed me that I have much more to learn about myself. Why this school? Its small so you will always fly with the same CFI (instructor) and the plane is always available. My schedule is all over the place, Larry was always open to my crazy days and hours, I once wanted to fly on Sunday at 7:30 am and when I asked him if that's okay he says this is my job, work comes first. That should say it all. Being in Arizona we have blue clear skies every day, that is key for doing this fast and cheap! I have a few friends that started and stopped in other schools the main issue was to many different instructors, I was doing approaches to land on my third lesson you can't do that if you switch CFI every lesson. Plane: Cessna 172 (2003). Great ride, well maintain and easy to learn on, Has just the right equipment, before I started I thought I wanted to learn on a plane with a G1000 and full glass. No need, you will pay more for something that you do not need. Don't wait. I waited around for a few years on friends that promised me that we will learn together, now its great if it happens - learning the ground school as a team will help you. But, the reality is your the pilot and your doing it on your own, looking back I am glad I did it alone. More people in the plane the more fuel and less performance = more cost. Price: When I did my shopping around it seamed like this school will cost me more because of Scottsdales fuel cost, but I live in Scottsdale and don't have the time to drive to chandler and back a few times a week. It ended up being cheaper then chandler because of the attention that Larry puts on your cost. He always made sure to be efficient so we don't do things twice. I was ready for my check ride in 45-50 hours. Tips, Everyone is going to tell you the same and its true, try to do it all in one shoot, 2,3 or even 4 lessons a week and read the PTS and other ground material from day one. Look for youtube videos on weather and other things you don't know. Get the test out of the way. I took a 5 week break and that cost me over $1000 learning how to land again don't do breaks. And try to pace it so that your check ride is in the winter. Last, when you go to Aerodyne flight center tell them I send you :)

Whether you have taken Flight lessons previously or this is your first time I bet you will have an awesome experience. The certified Flight instructors and there were two of them, very helpful.

Made us feel at ease, taking complex concepts down to more simple to understand routines and flows.

First, very difficult to find the location. There is no street signage. After several attempt to…read morelocate it, we finally found the location which is located in a Best Western Hotel off of the I-17 and Dunlap. Upon arrival, the hotel front desk clerk told us to take a seat and someone would be with us shortly. The Instructor met us with a proper introduction. We informed him this was for our 8 year old grandson, who happens to be very bright. He acknowledged and we were escorted to the sim room, which was very disappointing. It was a hotel room loosely which was converted into a simulated cock pit. It was not realistic, more like an arcade type game. The instruction and interaction was minimal. My grandson was given 3 tips on how to fly the plane. Very little conversation or interaction between the Instructor and my grandson took place. Very disappointed with the entire experience. My husband ran an ATC sim room at Sky Harbor Airport and is very well versed in flight simulators. This missed the mark, don't waste your money.

If you haven't flown an 1960's twin Comanche, definitely get familiar prior to training here…read more These guys will take your money, get you flying and have a check ride scheduled on the fourth day, which sounds good in theory; but doesn't work if you're completely new to twins and the Comanche. They really don't care whether you're actually ready for the check ride. It's a 'assembly line' mentality. I hadn't even practiced a single engine approach by check ride time!!

My instructor and was great to fly with. A couple of the mornings I hopped in the back seat to observe another guy getting his add-on. Highly recommend doing that if it works out - it gives you a great chance to observe and learn while not having to fly the aircraft. Spend some time before showing up reviewing the information under the "PA-30 downloads" section. Also - for those coming from out of town (like I was) - recommend you familiarize yourself with the Phoenix VFR sectional, KDVT airfield procedures, and KGEU (Glendale - we did lots of touch-and-go's there). It's extremely busy airspace, so it helps to be familiar with the area. Foreflight on the iPad was a big help. Thanks again guys ________________________________
