What a thrilling and amazing experience!!!…read more If you enjoy flying or you're a thrill seeking enthusiast or plain simply adventurous and enjoy trying new things for the first time...this is definitely one of those experiences to give a go. Book a Discovery Flight and spend an hour or more FLYING a plane with the guide of a certified pilot (we had Jacob...he was so amazing) across the beautiful landscape of North and South Carolina. Imagine the fall colors from above or flying into a sunset. At only 2000 ft, you're high enough to where there's great visibility below. A great activity to bond with a child, a friend, or even for a first date. Maybe even take a few lessons if interested. I really can't say enough good things to completely describe how wonderful this experience was but it's definitely one that I'll always remember. Give it a go!!

I attend their flight school, working toward my private pilot's license. This place is great! The…read morepeople at every position are professional and friendly. They strive to make everyone's experience top-notch, be it student pilots, customers of the regional airlines, or private owners that home-base here or just pass through. As a student pilot, I find both instructors to be very friendly, helpful, and energetic. They have been very positive toward keeping me progressing and doing the things that will be productive toward obtaining my PPL in the shortest (but safest) amount of time. The admin team is great, super friendly and personable. The line team is awesome. If you're looking to get your private pilot's license, test the waters (air) with an introductory flight, get an aerial tour of the Masters or take a romantic sunset tour, give these guys a call. You wont be disappointed.

Very lucky to be living and flying in such a beautiful and scenic place of the country to fly. If actual flying isn't your thing or maybe scared of heights then you can just hop in the full motion Redbird simulator and go anywhere in the world that you'd like. Great times to be had, and with great people. The flying or pilot community is a small one, but more like a family and some of the best people I've ever met!!

I started my IFR flight training in Charleston 2019 at another school prior to training with CRAFT…read more The Previous School I was flying with had some troubles with their aircraft unfortunately, and I was on a limited time frame to complete my IFR training as we were moving out of Charleston back to Florida. I contacted CRAFT and met with their great team and they were able to take me in, assess where I was at and get me set up and ready for my checkride in a short amount of time. The aircraft's are fantastic, well taken care of and flying the Diamond DA40 of course is amazing. If you're looking to do your flight training, take a discovery flight or just take a scenic tour around Charleston, I would recommend you reach out and talk to the team at CRAFT. Thanks again to Jay, Amanda and the team over at CRAFT and of course my Instructor Jack that helped me along obtaining my IFR ticket. - Kyle H.

I booked an introductory flight over the phone for my husband's birthday this year. Natasha was…read morevery polite and helpful answering all my questions and quickly set us up for a great experience. We arrived 10-15 minutes early to fill out paperwork and disclosures and he was quickly on his way. His instructor was Mark who was very cordial and my husband had nothing but good things to say about him after his flight. I was able to watch flight checks and takeoff from a distance, then took our daughter to Runway Park to play during his flight and watch their landing. It was a fantastic experience that my husband said he will remember for life. He said he would absolutely do it again and loved the experience of being able to fly an aircraft - something he's always wanted to do. Thanks Stratos!

Ever wondered what it would be like to jam to Sinatra's "Come Fly With Me" as you prepare to…read moretake-off in a plane... but with YOU being the actual pilot for the day?? Or perhaps you've considered living the dream of becoming a certified pilot? If you answered to either of the above, Dimitri and Stratos Aviation will certainly provide you with everything you need to know to fly a plane while giving you the ultimate experience of a lifetime! Stratos is perfect for anyone who's either curious in becoming a pilot or anyone who wants to experience a once in a lifetime opportunity for an exceptional price! I will say our experience with Dimitri was nothing short of spectacular. Coming in as a beginner with no flight experience whatsoever, Dimitri was able to teach us in an easy to understand format on learning the key fundamentals of flying a plane. By the time we finished our classroom training, we were ready to jet (pun intended). The plane we flew was a Cessna (the go-to of planes for training, law enforcement, leisure, etc). Upon inspection, completed safety checklist, and song selection to jam to for take-off (obviously) we were ready to do it! Taxiing and take-off with Dimitri was a breeze and the exhilaration as you push the throttle and pull back the control yoke to take-off is something everyone should do before they die. As we reached altitude, the only thing we could do was soak in the stunning views of downtown, the lakes, Paris Mountain, and what life has to offer from the front seat of the plane. Overall, the experience with Dimitri and Stratos is something that will go down in our books. Seriously, where else are you going to find an awesome instructor who will jam and dance to "Pump It" by Black Eyed Peas?
