If aviation had a blue-collar hero, it'd be Chris Miller. The guy runs Springfield Flying Service…read morelike a legend who's been single-handedly keeping general aviation alive with a wrench in one hand and a headset in the other. He does so much with so little that you start to wonder if he's secretly sponsored by duct tape and determination. The man could probably teach you to fly using a lawn chair and a leaf blower if he had to. It's not a fancy operation -- no espresso bar, no polished hangar floors -- but what you do get is real-world aviation. You'll learn how to fly, think, and handle anything that comes at you. And you'll laugh a lot doing it. Chris keeps good people around and somehow manages to turn great pilots into even better instructors. That says everything you need to know about the kind of leadership and passion behind this place. If you want to learn from someone who genuinely loves aviation -- and surrounds himself with folks who do too -- Springfield Flying Service is where you start your story.

After flying and recently soloing under Bakhtiyar's training I am confident in the skills and techniques he has taught me. If I could do it all again I would do it the same with Bakhtiyar. I would recommend Skyview Aviation and Bakhtiyar to anyone looking to learn to fly.

They advertise advertise check ride fee included in the pricing but I was asked to pay the examiner directly and then paid another check for extra training. The textbook provided written by Burke Mees isn't bad but it did not contain the information covered by the oral examination. Their ground training is almost nonexistent so be sure to obtain and study the FAA seaplane book. Foothills Aviation is a pretty serious place with high standards for precise flying. I just fly for fun and felt out of place here. I came with 600 hrs and instrument rating and I flew with Terry and Jim and Examiner Richard Conte for 10.1 hours but still couldn't fly well enough to meet the standards. I love seaplanes and I'd like to continue flying; however I'll have to look elsewhere.

We arrived from the east coast to purchase a Cessna 150 and elected to do an annual assist vs a pre buy. Mark is a great teacher but demands strict compliance with all work. We appreciated his attention to detail since we were preparing the C150 for a trip back east to North Carolina. It was a great learning experience for my wife and I as we cleaned plugs, removed wheel bearings etc and this was exactly what we had signed on for. In addition, Mark is a flight instructor and was able to get me current in the new aircraft. All things considered, our experience couldn't be improved on, it was great fun and we learned so much from Mark. We left and flew almost 3000 miles across mountains and desert feeling we knew our aircraft and it was airworthy. Best of all, we made new friends.
