Okay so after a while of not flying, about 2 years it was really hard to get myself to a school and…read moredo my flight review. Their responsiveness on Facebook and their help to find an AME in the area is what got me there Yesterday! First let me start off by saying they got an amazing Lobby, clean bathroom, delicious snacks and drinks and a very professional environment, Bakersfield Municipal airport is a very small airport but the facility is a hidden Gem for General aviation pilots at least. in General interested people in aviation often hesitate to contact a school or just walk in and check it out due to the rumor of high cost and difficulty of flying, if you are one of those, Please talk to them because I wasn't exactly loaded when I got my pilot license, you pay as you go and it will get done, once you are a pilot no one can take that away from you(well unless you really go above and beyond to ask the FAA for it lol). I honestly think if you really want to you anyone that is working can afford flying if you prioritize it over lets say a brand new car every 3 or 5 years. Now speaking of the instructors. Ask for Drew Yoder if you go there. He is such a great instructor that he will make you want to come back next day instead of next lesson whenever that is. Trust me i went through a few instructors before I got my License and I think once you get instruction from Drew you won't go through anyone else. Makes it feel so easy to fly, after 2 years of not flying i really felt i didn't know anything. At the end of the flying hour, It felt like there was never an interruption in my flying. I was flying at night , landing smoothly on a plane i only flew once before in an airport i literally never flew to. I think this sums it up as a first review, i decided to start this on yelp for them because i noticed there is no yelp reviews and they really deserve it over there!

Just finished my private pilot license here and the planes, instructors and airfield are perfect…read morefor the job. They fly Cherokee 140s which are much more comfortable than the standard Cessna 152s used at many schools, and keep them in really good condition. The area in general is wide open for training and the nearest control tower field is 10 minutes away, with many more good airfields to the North for solo cross country and night flying. When it came time for the checkride the instructors all helped out, scheduling the DAR, helping me prep to meet the standards, stage checking along the way (which was very good prep for facing the examiner at the end) and polishing up all my rough spots. And the big bonus - they never locked down during the Covid scare, so there is literally no waiting list. Will hopefully be going back for my commercial license in the future.

I've been flying out of Visalia for 30 years, with most of that time spent as a private pilot. Over…read morethat time, I have seen other schools come and go. I have to say that Visalia Flyers is by far the best option that has ever been available at the Visalia airport. The owner is an A&P (Airframe & Powerplant) Mechanic and he keeps the aircraft impeccably maintained. This is a huge deal! Airplane maintenance is expensive and I have flown some very sketchy planes where the owners tried to stretch things as far as possible and as a result, have experienced numerous in-flight issues. But so far, I have never had a problem with a Visalia Flyers airplane, and I have flown hundreds of hours in them. The instructors there are also top notch. They took me from my Private Pilot rating all the way through my Instrument, Commercial, and Flight Instructor ratings and I enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommended!!!

I wish I could remember the name of the helpful woman who assisted me--she answered all my questions and let me know I could stop by to purchase a gift certificate. The prices are very reasonable, both for glider rides and for the courses offered to become a glider pilot. I'm so excited to watch my daughter take her first flight! There's also a restaurant, the Raven's Nest, right at the small airport, so we can watch as she takes off. 12/20/24

I then found FlightCerts and discussed with Evan what I wanted and how I like to learn. Immediately I saw the difference in quality of flight instruction. I was impressed with the format and training I received. In a few months I went from 0 hrs to cross country soloing and now prepping for my check ride for my PPL. Thank you for the continued support in my journey to living the dream!

This school is incredible! Evan was my instructor for my Discovery flight (I did the 1.5 hour…read moreoption), and he made every step of the way easy and fun. Taking the reigns on a plane for the first time can be nerve wracking but Evan was right there with me the whole time supporting me. Prior to takeoff he slowly and deliberately walked me through each step of the pre-flight inspection. In the air, we had a really great time trying out all sorts of maneuvers and practicing in the airspace. He clearly described everything every step of the way. Afterwards, he took the time to explain how different flight schools are set up and the syllabus that they've created at FlightCerts to ensure that their students get the best of all worlds. I had an amazing experience with them and look forward to taking more lessons!

I was especially impressed with the syllabus items for the Impala and Sabreliner aircraft. I have zero doubt that I am a better aviator having gone through this training.

I asked a local (to me) shop to give a quote for the Stratus unit, and it was upwards of 5k. I thought I would bite that bullet but I received a postcard from Flight Research so I called and they were able to beat the price by hundreds! I flew into Mojave, which is a fun trip by the way, and the install was handled so well, and because it was a 'flat rate' some wiring and the encoder was replaced as included in the price. When it came time to leave, I had a problem with my radios and so I had to leave it to find the problem. Luckily it was a connector and an easy fix. But I had no ride to get there. So as their final and greatest act of customer service, they flew one of their planes to pick me up. I was having my old Mooney repaired, but I was treated like I was Space X. Great tour of the facility was included, too. I am so happy with the unit and the install and was able to receive my rebate too! High praise for Toni and Scott and all the hands on folks - thanks for taking care of my girl!
