I earned my instrument rating at Academy of Aviation almost 20 years ago, maybe more, and I'm pretty sure that was around the time they first started. Even back then, it stood out as one of the best flight schools around, and what really impresses me is that they've remained steady and reliable all these years. A lot of flight schools come and go, but Academy of Aviation has stayed strong, which says a lot in this industry.
Currently working on getting my ratings and I would like to say I am extremely pleased with this academy. First off Katerina was extremely helpful with getting me enrolled and breaking down the expenses and what would be expected of me whenever I would begin schooling. The culture of the academy is extremely lively and the students and staff are extremely friendly and are always willing to give advice on how to advance further in your education.
I would recommend this flight school. All the staff members have always been helpful and understanding, and made me feel as part of the family. There's a special shout-out to Ms. Cameron. She's been so helpful throughout the whole time, from the very beginning and until the present moment.
Great community of instructors and students. Katerina was great in helping me through the registration and loan process. Thank you!

Commercial and Private Pilot Academy at Republic Airport (KFRG) in Farmingdale, Long Island, New York.
What truly sets us apart is the way we see you - not just as
a
student, but as an individual with unique goals, dreams, and challenges. We don't
believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we tailor your training to fit
you, providing one-on-one instruction that ensures you're always moving forward.
Whether you're logging extra hours in one of our state-of-the-art simulators or
joining a free group ground lesson, there's always an opportunity to grow, to
improve, to get closer to that moment when you take the sky on your own.
Here, you're never alone. Our instructors are more than teachers - they're mentors,
guides, and, most importantly, people who have stood exactly where you are. Many of
them trained right here, walked these same halls, and sat in the same pilot's seat
before moving on to their own aviation careers. We believe in keeping talent close,
which is why we prefer to hire our own students as instructors. That means when you
train with us, you're not just earning your wings—you could be paving the way for
the next generation of pilots, passing down your knowledge before taking off for the
airlines.
And the places you'll go? The possibilities are endless. From the towering skyline
of Manhattan to the coastal beauty of Martha's Vineyard, the peaceful retreat of
Montauk, or the buzzing excitement of Atlantic City - your training is as expansive
as
your ambitions. But no matter how far you fly, one thing remains constant: here at
FRG, you're not just learning to fly. You're becoming part of a family - one that
shares your passion, supports your journey, and is just as obsessed with aviation as
you are.
