Mark at Maverick Aviation is the best A&P and flight instructor we have had the pleasure of working…read morewith. We arrived from the east coast to purchase a Cessna 150 and elected to do an annual assist vs a pre buy. Mark is a great teacher but demands strict compliance with all work. We appreciated his attention to detail since we were preparing the C150 for a trip back east to North Carolina. It was a great learning experience for my wife and I as we cleaned plugs, removed wheel bearings etc and this was exactly what we had signed on for. In addition, Mark is a flight instructor and was able to get me current in the new aircraft. All things considered, our experience couldn't be improved on, it was great fun and we learned so much from Mark. We left and flew almost 3000 miles across mountains and desert feeling we knew our aircraft and it was airworthy. Best of all, we made new friends.

Maverick Aviation provided just the experience I needed. My instructor, Mark was professional and…read moregave me good tips to work on during my flight review.

JC Air Academy .... Many issues..... find another school !!!! They made a presentation at our son's…read moreschool and he was convinced this was a good school. This school is terrible! Korean is their language so English is terrible! They are nice to your face then lie. They claim many planes maybe three that work and they have problems all the time. Flights canceled due to mechanical issues often. So often I was afraid for my son's safety. The final straw was the instructor convinced my son to give her his airport security ID then used it illegally to enter the airport! We were contacted by airport security and TSA. After a big investigation my son was eventually cleared of wrongdoing. We were told the instructor will be banned and they will be heavily fined. TSA investigation continues. I suspect they have done much worse!!!!! They are all SHADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After flying and recently soloing under Bakhtiyar's training I am confident in the skills and techniques he has taught me. If I could do it all again I would do it the same with Bakhtiyar. I would recommend Skyview Aviation and Bakhtiyar to anyone looking to learn to fly.

I've trained with many flight schools since I've got my private pilot license twentysomething years…read moreago and this school is clearly one of the best. Run by an active corporate pilot (who flies business jets for living) and staffed by team of a great CFIs (flight instructors), they really get the job done: to bring you from start to the license or rating level you aim for in a minimum time and at reasonable cost. This is truly a goal-oriented approach that gets the results. Unlike many other schools where instructors are more focused on time-building (pretty much riding along on your dime), these guys really can teach and are good at that! I live in the Bay Area, and IMHO two-hour drive to Modesto for flight training is well worth it. You get the quality!

If aviation had a blue-collar hero, it'd be Chris Miller. The guy runs Springfield Flying Service…read morelike a legend who's been single-handedly keeping general aviation alive with a wrench in one hand and a headset in the other. He does so much with so little that you start to wonder if he's secretly sponsored by duct tape and determination. The man could probably teach you to fly using a lawn chair and a leaf blower if he had to. It's not a fancy operation -- no espresso bar, no polished hangar floors -- but what you do get is real-world aviation. You'll learn how to fly, think, and handle anything that comes at you. And you'll laugh a lot doing it. Chris keeps good people around and somehow manages to turn great pilots into even better instructors. That says everything you need to know about the kind of leadership and passion behind this place. If you want to learn from someone who genuinely loves aviation -- and surrounds himself with folks who do too -- Springfield Flying Service is where you start your story.

Super fun! I bought…read moremy son a flight for his 14th birthday. He had never even been in a plane before, let alone flew one. Needless to say he was a bit apprehensive about his flight. When we arrived at the Airport we were greeted by our pilot and instructor Jim. He was very friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable which made my son feel at ease. After a through lesson and overview of the Cesna 187 it was time for my son take the pilots seat. I was happy to tag along. My son read the pre flight checklist from the POA and off we went. Once the plane was at altitude my son had his chance to fly. He was encouraged to bank left and right and shown how to keep the nose leval. It was very exciting to see my son flying the plane. Sadly after about 20 min it was time to land. Jim landed us safely and beautifully. It was a great experience! I don't know who liked it more me or my son? I encourage anyone who has ever wanted to fly a plane to give it a try. In addition it is a very unique and fun gift to give.Years from now my son won't remember what toys or games I buy him. However, his experience of flying a plane with JetExe will last him a lifetime. Thanks for the memories guys!

December 16, 2017…read more JetEXE Aviation hosted a Christmas party. Invites were sent out, and I RSVP, as soon as I received my invite. The function was held in the hangar. All planes were relocated outside for this event, except for 2 planes. These 2 planes were the back drop, of this function. Welcome, Introductions 630 - 700 pm Drinks & Hors d'oeuvres 630 - 730 pm Buffet - style dinner 730 - 900 pm Door prizes and Silent auction 900 - 930 pm Live band "Golden Caddilacs" 730 - 1030 pm Fund raiser for Charitable 501C3 Snehacare for abandoned children with HIV Http://snehacarehome.org Everything was set up accordingly. They had 3 bartenders, making sure everyone drinks were topped off. LOL The band was playing good music, which had a lot of people on the dance floor, including me and van. The buffet style meal was plentiful and delicious. The line for this meal seemed to flow without hiccups. It seemed Venus was in charge of this department. (she works front desk) Job well done I saw Chris (operations manager) running around and making sure things were in place, like extension cords, to make this event happen.. The silent auctions consist of paintings, trip to Mexico, etc... They also had candles for sale. Not sure up this point how this turned out. Augustine, the owner, greeted everyone, making it such a warm welcoming environment. It was nice to see people involved in aviation and being able to meet them first hand. Can't wait till next party hosted by Augustine !!

Four weeks later we picks up our finished products! Everything was glazed and looked so great! Overall, this class was silly and fun and would definitely go back again!
