ATLANTA FLIGHT TRAINING

I've had a great experience at the Academy of Aviation. I earned my Private Pilot License (PPL) and Instrument Rating (IR) through their part 141 program and am currently preparing for my commercial checkride under part 61. The staff here are genuinely helpful and friendly, making the entire learning process enjoyable and seamless.

The aircraft are well-maintained, and the maintenance team is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Often I find myself walking through the hanger and spending several minutes discussing the work they are doing or just shooting the breeze.

I'm excited to continue my aviation journey here, and I look forward to earning my CFI and CFII ratings with this school. Highly recommend the Academy of Aviation to anyone looking to pursue a career in aviation or achieve their flying dreams!

If you are looking for a place for flight training, look no further. My experience with the Academy of Aviation has been wonderful. I have had a great experience with their team of professionals, and you can tell that they really care about the success of their students. Miranda has always gone the extra mile for me to ensure that my flight training is a great experience. Their facilities are all top-notch. Everything that you need to successful in your flight training goals is provided by this school.

I have attended AoA for approximately nine months and I am currently approximately 60 hours into my Private Pilot training. I am on track to obtain my Private Pilot Certificate at the national average of about 70 hours. The reason it has taken nine months to get to this point is because I have a full-time career that I commit approximately 50 hours a week to.

AoA has enabled me to get to this point because of their flexibility in scheduling, quality of training, and the abundant amount of academic resources offered to their students at no cost. Free advanced ground training, free simulator access, responsive and vested CFI staff willing to answer questions and discuss topics extensively based on personal/professional experience. AoA is racked and stacked with accommodations that have contributed to my success.

A very important consideration for me was the fact that AoA is Part 141 certified, offering me the means to afford the training by utilizing student loans.

All of AoA's CFIs are incredibly professional and take their industry very serious. Nearly all of the CFIs are en route to a career in the airlines upon gaining their coveted 1500 hours of flight time. I find it to be a pleasure to share the experiences with all the AoA CFI staff as part of their story as much as them being a part of mine. Miranda and Tyler have cultivated a highly professional and effective training environment.

I am routinely having positive encounters with the other students at every level of training and achievement. Everyone is always incredibly approachable and supportive. I genuinely look forward to getting to the airfield, walking into the AoA building, and running into as many of my friends as possible; as the biggest challenge for me is that I can't spend enough time at AoA due to my full-time career.

FYI, Falcon Field is not for the faint of heart. It is one of the busiest non-towered airfields in Georgia. The timid need not apply. Meanwhile, those who prevail will certainly come out the other side as highly advantaged in operating out of such a busy environment. It sets you up for success, for sure.
