Everyone from the line to front desk was super nice and helpful, they helped us find a hotel and even lent us a car for the night because they had no crew cars. The next day we were delayed 4 hours for weather and they were nothin but kind and thoughtful. Offering us water and fresh oranges. I truly appreciated the attention of the staff and the facilities (they're building another building next store). World class service, I will be recommending them to everyone I meet!

This is a small school run by fun people who are easy to do business with…read more However, they don't deliver good value. They charge a high price per hour for airplanes and instruction, for which we should expect better equipment and more professionalism. I flew nearly 100 hours with this school and didn't get my license before giving up on them. Many schools claim that good students can do it in 50 hours, 60-80 seems average, and not finishing by 100 hours is rare; a good student should finish in half the time for a third the price. If you live near Palm Springs and want to learn how to fly, you owe it to yourself to shop around for other schools. Although this may be the only flight school in the valley, there are many others to choose from on the west side of the Banning pass, especially in Riverside.

This is an excellent school. It's small and friendly, yet, professional at the same time…read more As a student pilot, I am allowed to make mistakes and feel perfectly safe since John, the Certified Flight Instructor, can take a plane that I've positioned badly while landing, and ease it to the runway so smoothly you don't feel the tires touch. That's exactly the kind of instruction a student needs when learning the skill of flying an airplane, you need to feel safe making mistakes,so that you can progress from not knowing how to land to landing safely, landing well, landing consistently well and then doing it in a cross wind! I now have over 20 hours, I can land safely, I enjoy cross wind landings, and will be soloing soon. Flying is the best part of my week. I am very happy with this school. They have far exceeded my expectations.

Rental cars are provided on the field by Go Rentals and they are nice and guarantee a car upon landing, although rates can be pricy for an economical car. The Bermuda Dunes airport is close to one of the top rated bakeries on Yelp, the TKB Bakery with a 5-star average with over 2500 reviews (about a 10m drive away). I highly recommend stopping there for lunch after you land for one of their famous sandwiches. This airport is also the much more economical option to access Palm Springs, CA. There are no landing fees and overnight fees are under $15 for a single engine piston. Fuel prices are reasonable and the staff are so kind and nice. It's only a 30 minute drive from Palm Springs, CA as well.

She showed tremendous patience with us and the whole situation and ended up picking us up exactly where she dropped us off despite traffic being diverted all over. She is 1st class and pretty much saved a long night for us with her persistence on getting us. This Co. is awesome, and the reason is because they have quality people that care! We will be using them every time we are visiting the desert! Highly recommend!

I did my homework looking around form a flight school that was a good fit for me…read more Chris, the owner, rolled out the red carpet and showed me around. I got to meet many of his instructors. All were great guys, great to talk to, all very experienced, competent and patient. I continued to look at other schools, as I wanted to make the best choice for me. So, I booked a lesson, Mark is my assigned instructor. The guy was awesome! I've flown quite a bit previously, this was an aircraft I was not familiar with. Mark gave me a great run down of the plane, and had me do the pre-flight myself, but supervising to make sure I didn't miss anything, which was perfect, I learn best by doing things myself, Mark zeroed in on that, and let me do my thing, and alerted me to anything that I missed and explained it. That was perfect. Mark had me taxi, I was unfamiliar with this aircraft, and a little nervous about it, but Mark zeroed in on that and encouraged me to taxi, and get familiar with the rudder controls, and get the feeling for it. Mark was super patent the entire time and kept giving me information, and also had me using the radio, holding me to performing as PIC, he didn't let me allow my nervousness to hold me back, he comfortably encouraged me to push forward. Which again is how I learn the best. Chris was there, overseeing operations and checking in with me as to how it was going. Again, what a great guy. Both of these men had a great sense of humor, were encouraging. I'm used to flying a very old C172, and these aircraft are very new with very modern avionics that I am not familiar with, but eased me into finding everything. What this did was give me just enough to want to jump back into lessons feet first. What a great day. I'm anxious to have my next lesson with my instructor, and fly as many planes as they offer so I can have experience flying several aircraft They make becoming a pilot lots of fun. Yeah, I got very nervous being in an unfamiliar aircraft, and the modern avionics intimidated me, but Mark kept me busy and hands on, and didn't let me talk myself out of adapting to the modern avionics. A little on the aircraft, it was a very new airplane, very sensitive and responsive to the controls, I'm using to a very old 172 that is like pushing draft horse around, these aircraft respond to a light touch, this is teaching me to fly a modern plane that flies like it is supposed to that didn't make me have to wrestle with the controls like I am accustomed to, which made that plane a pleasure to operate. My only complaint is that it is not my day to fly today! And I want to fly more. I have to pay as I go, so, I'm flying on a budget, yet Chris and Mark are good with that, and have a plan to keep me flying often, and keep on learning. This is exactly the kind of learning environment that I need. I am impressed. I can't speak highly enough about the school or the quality of instruction. This is exactly what I need, as in my not so distant future, I am acquiring my own airplane, and am going to tour 48 states by air. I'll be traveling alone, and these guys are giving me thorough instruction to help me grow into a competent and confident pilot so I can accomplish my dreams. So, if you're looking for a great flight school, with great instructors that are other yet will push you to learn hands on, and flying NEWER aircraft, you'd be hard pressed to find a better school. The school is a very veteran friendly place, treating this old Jar Head like a VIP. SEMPER FI.
