Instrument Rating
If you’re a non-instrument rated pilot, you’ve most likely experienced the frustration of cancelling flights due to low ceilings or poor visibility.
By becoming instrument rated, you’ll be able to control your airplane and navigate all the way to your destination by just referencing your flight instruments. It opens up many more opportunities for travel without weather limitations. In just 10 days of hard work, you can get this Instrument Rating. You can fly your own aircraft or choose from our fleet.

Flight Instructor (CFI) Rating
Your love for flying can help others discover and develop that passion! It’s also a great way to increase your flight time and experience which helps your own career path.
Typically, landing a job with an airline, corporate or charter company requires a lot more flight time and experience than the 200-300 hours of flight time gained while earning your ratings. One of the more common ways to increase flight time is to become a Flight Instructor and teach at various levels. Certified Flight Instructors (CFI’s) can offer primary instruction for the Private Pilot Certificate, Instrument Rating, Mulit-Engine Rating and Airline Transport Pilot Certificate. As a CFI, for every hour you teach your students, you too can log that time and get paid for it too!
