When I started to look around for a place to help me get back into aviation (after a very long time…read moreaway) one of my requirements was a place that could not only rent airplanes and supply an instructor, but a place that was friendly and a place where I could become part of a community. I found just such a place at Foothill Flying Club. Very friendly, welcoming, enthusiastic. The airplanes are well maintained and they have a good list of CFIs they can hook you up with. They have a good range of aircraft, from 172, 152, 182, Piper Warrior, Remos (LSA), and more. They also maintain a fairly complete pilots supply store with competitive prices. Their clubhouse is clean, modern and comfortable, and a great place to hang out even when you are not flying. Being right next door (literally) to Maniac Mike's Cafe is a plus too. Cable Airport (KCCB) is a special place. Not fancy, but home to true aviation enthusiasts who just love aviation. It's a great place to train and soak up the aviation atmosphere. Being an uncontrolled airport makes things a little easier on the beginner, but since you are in SoCal airspace, you will get lots of experience working with ATC and control towers. The best of both worlds. FHFC is a great place. Highly recommended.

From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my strengths and weaknesses, tailoring his instruction to ensure I fully grasped every concept and could safely perform all maneuvers. He never rushed the process and made sure I was fully prepared before allowing me to solo. Patrick was always patient, thorough, and supportive. He answered all my questions, addressed any doubts I had, and guided me through every step of my training--including preparing me for my checkride. Thanks to his dedication, I am now a Private Pilot! If you're just starting out and unsure where to go for flight training, I highly recommend Patrick. He is certified to train pilots at all levels and is truly committed to his students' safety and success! If you're looking for a knowledgeable and patient instructor who puts safety and learning first, Patrick is the one to train with!

From my son Rick: 17…read morey/o PPL here. UAA's KPOC school offers professional yet welcoming environment. The staff are extremely friendly with a nice facility located on the Northwest end of the field. To add some perspective, you hear about 17 year old birthday checkrides, and 40 hour check rides, but not both. I came into UAA with absolutely no stick time and left as a flight school record holder with my checkride which was done on my 17th birthday @40 hours. This would not have been possible without my CFI/CFII Vishwa Ravichandran, who made this possible by going out of his way to customize a training regimen for me to make it happen. Extremely selfless yet knowledgeable individual who cares about teaching his students, and making each student better than the last passed checkride. My very first interaction with him was when he allowed me to borrow his headset when mine had an issue on my very second flight. He became my primary CFI immediately following this. My previous CFI, from the KEMT location, was inconsistent with scheduling and it felt as if I was acting as a passenger in the pilots seat as opposed to investing in a hands-on learning experience. Compare this Vishwa's constant attention to the little things, which are the reason why I passed my checkride at my age with such a low flight time. UAA's KPOC location offers a greater environment for students. My father obtained his rotor wing PPL at 68 hours at the KEMT location, and obviously myself at 40 at KPOC. I will let the hours speak for themselves. Great school with great people, highly recommend.

Everyone is friendly, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile. Their pricing is very competitive for the level of service they provide, and most importantly, they prioritize safety.

I've built a few hundred hours flying with Skylogix and highly recommend them to anyone. They genuinely care about their pilots /students it's not just about money with them. Whether you're looking for a flight school or group of similar minded time builders, Skylogix is the place to go to in SoCal.
