Super fun! I bought…read moremy son a flight for his 14th birthday. He had never even been in a plane before, let alone flew one. Needless to say he was a bit apprehensive about his flight. When we arrived at the Airport we were greeted by our pilot and instructor Jim. He was very friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable which made my son feel at ease. After a through lesson and overview of the Cesna 187 it was time for my son take the pilots seat. I was happy to tag along. My son read the pre flight checklist from the POA and off we went. Once the plane was at altitude my son had his chance to fly. He was encouraged to bank left and right and shown how to keep the nose leval. It was very exciting to see my son flying the plane. Sadly after about 20 min it was time to land. Jim landed us safely and beautifully. It was a great experience! I don't know who liked it more me or my son? I encourage anyone who has ever wanted to fly a plane to give it a try. In addition it is a very unique and fun gift to give.Years from now my son won't remember what toys or games I buy him. However, his experience of flying a plane with JetExe will last him a lifetime. Thanks for the memories guys!

December 16, 2017…read more JetEXE Aviation hosted a Christmas party. Invites were sent out, and I RSVP, as soon as I received my invite. The function was held in the hangar. All planes were relocated outside for this event, except for 2 planes. These 2 planes were the back drop, of this function. Welcome, Introductions 630 - 700 pm Drinks & Hors d'oeuvres 630 - 730 pm Buffet - style dinner 730 - 900 pm Door prizes and Silent auction 900 - 930 pm Live band "Golden Caddilacs" 730 - 1030 pm Fund raiser for Charitable 501C3 Snehacare for abandoned children with HIV Http://snehacarehome.org Everything was set up accordingly. They had 3 bartenders, making sure everyone drinks were topped off. LOL The band was playing good music, which had a lot of people on the dance floor, including me and van. The buffet style meal was plentiful and delicious. The line for this meal seemed to flow without hiccups. It seemed Venus was in charge of this department. (she works front desk) Job well done I saw Chris (operations manager) running around and making sure things were in place, like extension cords, to make this event happen.. The silent auctions consist of paintings, trip to Mexico, etc... They also had candles for sale. Not sure up this point how this turned out. Augustine, the owner, greeted everyone, making it such a warm welcoming environment. It was nice to see people involved in aviation and being able to meet them first hand. Can't wait till next party hosted by Augustine !!

Steve told me that would not be a problem as long as I was okay paying a small fee. As we were getting closer, I started looking at the yelp reviews and got kind of nervous, but decided to go through with it anyways. The day of the flight, we got to the airport and waited for the flight instructor to get back from a different flight in the tables and chairs in front of the office. When he got there, he was very nice and grabbed headphones for the flight, chatted a bit, and we were off! The entire experience was amazing! The flight instructor told my boyfriend everything he was doing and explained what all of the things on the dash meant. He told him every move he did with his own joystick and explained everything that was happening over the air control radio. We got very lucky with great weather for the flight and an incredible teacher who I don't remember the name of. Overall this was an amazing experience and nothing could have made it better. The flight instructor was amazing, helpful, and cool, and the flight was super fun. I definitely recommend doing flight training through Executive Flyers because I would absolutely do it again! Make sure to get a pilot's log book before you fly so the instructor can sign off on your hours!

It took me 5 1/2 years to get back into the left seat. I met with Ty and he suggested that I take my BFR check ride with Nick. From day 1 Nick was professional and a clearly skilled CFI. He understood some of my hesitancy and we went on my pace. After shaking the cobwebs off I was able to complete the BFR without any issues. There are a lot of flight schools out there so make sure you do the research. Not every CFI is for you, the student. Don't ever forget that you are the one spending a lot of money to fly..so you may as well fly with the best. For full disclosure, there was an issue with my billing but the front office took care of it within about 1 day and were extremely apologetic, but at the same time very professional. The aircraft are much newer than some other schools (N441QF is a 1997 C172), (N87GV a 1996 C172) and (N124CE the 180HP C172S). THey are maintained in house by the schools mechanics. I'm definitely going to rent my planes here and come back for additional training while I am in my instrument phase. Keep up the good work!

The plane we were going to use was late getting in. The instructor did not show my son a brief preflight. Returned to the airport early.

When asked if his school was able to provide an Accelerated Multiengine Commercial Add-On in one week he said, "yes, we can get that done." Excitedly I purchased the training materials from his school, booked a hotel, and studied feverishly as I awaited the big day. First day of training. I wake up early, hop in the car, and drive 3.5 hours to the school. I show up and he is missing several documents I provided on my initial visit. Not overly professional, but I choose not to let it wreck the day--I let it slide. Next he tells me the airplane has a leaky sump and will be fixed momentarily. It's aviation and maintenance issues happen--I won't make a fuss over it. We make small talk and discuss aircraft systems for a while. 2 hours pass and we are losing daylight. I inquire whether or not we will fly that day, and whether we will accomplish the training in the promised timeframe. His answer disappointed me: Only after showing up for my first lesson did he tell me we'd be unable to schedule a checkride with for 4+ months due to DPE availability. I felt misled because 4+ months did not meet the "accelerated" timeframe that was promised over several phone calls and an in-person meeting. I expressed my displeasure and told him we had talked about this being a one-week program. He said he would call around to try to secure a sooner date, and would contact me the next day with an answer. I cancel the hotel, drive another 3.5 hours back home, and wait to hear from him. It's been several days and that call never came. I feel disappointed in the service I received. Had Carter communicated the proper expectations on the front end, and followed through with contacting me as he said he would, there would be no hard feelings. Instead I am left feeling as though I had been bamboozled. The only saving grace is I discovered this prior to dropping several thousand dollars on training expense. If you are looking for a flight school, I hope my experience can serve as a cautionary tale. From what little time I spent there, it appeared they are equipped to adequately provide training to introductory students, but if you are seeking advanced ratings in a specific timeframe I would recommend looking elsewhere.

The instructors are very knowledgeable and want you to succeed. They try their hardest to help you along the fast pace program. This program requires your full time and attention in order to get through it. There is an incredible amount of information that one needs to learn but the students and instructors are all there to help. I have flown with the lead flight instructor, Rob Belme, many times and only have good things to say about him. He has helped me in the air and on the ground. He has sat down with me many times in order to explain whatever I had questions about and never complained about doing so. He has an extensive knowledge about aviation and is able to simplify the information so it is easy to understand. He prioritizes safety over everything. Rob, along with the other instructors, want to help those in this program to succeed in making aviation a career. I would recommend this program to those who have the time and desire to become a professional pilot.

If you want to earn your wings and become a good pilot, look elsewhere. This is no flight school,…read morethis is a scam. I just got the invoice and they charge 75$ per flight to sign your logbook. That generously takes 5 minutes. Often they forget to do it or are so stacked up with poor scheduling they leave it for another day. That's 900$ an hour for activities that never took place! Such a scam! The planes here are unsafe by most standards, they are even rigged wrong. My first day here the mechanic told me he isn't provided a tensiononmeter so the planes don't fly true. They also have out of date electronics and no autopilot. Rob Belme the lead flight instructor here is a slob who trashed his students publicly to other students, he admits trashing students to FAA DPE's, he publicly states how proud he is to run off or wash out credit private students he also plays games in his phone while students are under the hood, not only is this dangerous but the hourly rate is $530. Management even admits his obvious bias but makes no effort to fix it. I've overheard Rob Belme trash female students specifically and gay students and when I reported that to ATP, they kicked me out. This guy holds meetings in the training center where he speaks of defacating on students cars, puting snuss pouches in their sodas to make them sick. I have never been in such an unprofessional and demented training environment. Please consider any other flight school. They will lie about their planes, their instructors, and their timelines. You will pay upfront, and you will regret it. And worse, their lead instructor brags about trashing his students to FAA so as to make sure they never become pilots. Consider yourself warned.
