(This is coming from someone who's worked at a different FBO before in my school days.) - Their aircrafts are always well-maintained. Any small maintenance issue, however minute, is taken very seriously. (And I will vouch for this as a mx engineer for a DFW-based commercial airline.) - The instructors are very personable, patient, and exudes cool. Ask for James, Diego, or Ray. My top 3 picks. - The prices are very reasonable and allow you to pay as you fly. It is a great feature for people who work full time like me and still take pilot lessons on the side to not break the bank. Overall a very good experience so far and very fortunate to come across it.

I got to fly one time in their planes and the planes do not appear up to standards nor do they seem safe. We had to switch planes due to overlooked maintenance items last minute. Their customer service is horrible as well. As a student who is struggling to afford flight training on my own $3400 is a huge loss to me and given them time since then I essentially lost the money because I didn't use it fast enough according to their timeline. I resent ever coming here and would sue if I could afford it.

You may fly a couple of times initially after you first pay them money, but eventually, all of their planes will be down for maintenance. They have over 50 people with money on their books but they only have five airplanes, and the planes are regularly down for maintenance than unavailable. If you asked for a refund, they will tell you that they don't give refunds. Don't waste your money. Find a flying club or another flight school to rent from because all they are interested in is taking thousands of dollars from each individual and making promises they are unable to keep.

There are so many good things that I could write about ITP, but if I were to sum it up; it all…read morecomes down to the incredible people that work there. Between Ms. Emma working the schedule, all the amazing flight instructors that prioritize learning, and the owner, Sherman, making sure all operations run smoothly and safely, you will be taken care of if you choose to fly with this flight school. I honestly cannot write enough praise to express how grateful I am that I was able to fly here. To give some context to my experience, I approached the team at ITP with a challenge to help me finish my private pilot license within a month. I had previous flight experience and had already accomplished my first solo, however, it had been a few years since then. I needed all the applicable training to get back to where I could solo, get all the required cross country time, and the proper aeronautical experience to finally have a checkride. After hearing this, Sherman and Emma booked time slots for the rest of the month and set me up with my CFI, Steffen. Although the weather took out a full week's worth of training, I was able to check during the month timeframe and, most importantly, I got my license accomplished UNDER BUDGET! This is the best flight school that I have ever flown with and if you choose to fly with ITP you will not be disappointed!

He really knows what he's doing and he makes it easy to learn and understand what you're doing and why. He isn't scary or uptight like some of the instructors I've flown with at other schools. They have a nice little setup with multiple planes, both high wing (Cessna) and low wing (Cherokee). The office is a little small, but I'm told their main office is being renovated. The classroom actually has a nice feel to it though because your up close with your instructor and you can really grasp the materials/ask questions if needed. I love flying here, can't wait for all this weather to be gone so I can go up again!

Great on-line scheduling system makes it very easy to get on the calendar at YOUR convenience. Chip and his team are tops in this market. Plus, they've added an on-site mechanic who can now attend to your plane's every need. Can't say enough about these guys. All the instructors are tops. Josh is great - very patient with rusty pilots, but also keeps you to task so that you can achieve your goals. Try them out if you're thinking about getting your license or just looking to gain some IFR instruction or getting your CFI or CFII, ATP or whatever. Believe they also do tail-dragger training as well.

Everybody was coming and made you feel ladies. Since the plants are older there is no fan or AC so depending on the temperature outside, it may be very hot in the cockpit. I'm a bit short so it's hard for me to see over all the gauges, so I really had to use all of my tools to keep the plane on course instead of looking over the dashboard as you would do in a car. It was a few of us, so we had to wait a bit for each other to come back, but we all had a great time and created great memories!

I would recommend this school over any other in the DFW area. Why I enjoy Parrish: - They take care of you by knowing your name, cheering you on, and fighting for you to become a better pilot. - They get you in the plane as much as your schedule allows. - The CFI's are top-notch. - The price is very fair, and helpful, in an expensive field. - They're flexible and work with you (and your family). - They continue to grow their offerings and service with the students in mind. Why would I give it only 4 stars? I believe they have the potential to become 5 stars, not due to lack of quality right now, but the fact that they are still growing at a rapid pace. Many of you looking from the outside may have certain expectations comparing to more established schools, thus as the equipment may not be as new or clean, I want to set expectations correctly--Parrish is new and is growing quickly. There are still minor growing pains to come as they continue to become what they hope to be. Though you read this now and may see it as a negative, I still truly believe that Parrish is the best school in the DFW and you should definitely come here if you're looking for a flight academy that has a humble owner, kind staff, and who all want the best for you. At least give it a try, what could it hurt?

As we were in the air, we could hear the pilot explain specific locations. We could also hear people from the towers talking, pretty neat and cool. I am so happy and excited for this experience. Life is all about the memories we leave. If you ever have the chance to fly, try it. Don't worry about anything just enjoy the beautiful views of Dallas, TX . Thank you Denise and crew
