My first flight ever was a cross country, he only tells you things once, and if you ask him a question he yells at you. It was the worst flying experience and I would not recommend him to anyone. He will ask that you pay him upfront *DO NOT DO IT* you will never get your money back and you will have to pay someone else to reteach you.

Joy is THE BEST!! This is the coolest flying operation with the best Texas hospitality. I was…read morereferred here because I am going to buy a vintage taildragger and this was the place to go per local instructors. Joy and her awesome husband Jerry (wizard airplane mechanic and a pilot himself) have such a friendly operation and GREAT instruction. I'm a former F-16 pilot and take my training seriously and want it to be professional. That's the ONLY way Joy does it. And if she makes a radio call while we're flying, invariably one of her former students will recognize her and say 'hi'--this is the respect this Texas Lady carries. Even doing acrobatics, she will not tolerate a lopsided loop or a crooked cuban eight. If you want to learn to fly starting out or adding a type rating, and you want to do it the RIGHT way, this is the place.

Outstanding! I've been a private pilot for about 7 years…read morebut needed a post-COVID refresher. Modern Pilot has a clean modern facility, with a nice choice of well-kept and clean aircraft. My favorite is the Diamond DA-40 for now, possibly the only one you can find for training/rental south of Dallas. The star of the show is their Cirrus lineup and sim. Perfect for transition training to the remarkable SR 22. They're dedicated to safety, have shown flexibility to accommodate my busy schedule, and have been so supportive and encouraging. Great attitude, planes, facility at a nice low stress airport. I'm truly enjoying my experience and encourage anyone seeking to start or continue their flight training to visit.

They are busy, but when the weather is good, everyone flies. Reach out to Rudy and ask for a discovery flight or schedule an evaluation with an instructor.

The company was reasonably priced, professional, and the pilot was very responsive to my needs as a photographer. In fact, I am in the process of scheduling my third photo flight with them for hopefully next week.

After that, I decided to sign up for lessons. Less than 2 months later I had my private license, and I am currently working on my commercial rating. Highly recommend Apex to anyone who's interested, and maybe a little nervous about going in a helicopter.

They ran a special last Thanksgiving offering a helicopter hog hunt for $1695. My friend and I each…read moreponied up the $1695 and planned on an awesome hog hunting trip within the next year... Not so much. Apparently, they've had some major logistical problems and are not honoring the hunts anymore. I have tried over 40 times to get in touch with them, with only a blanket email stating that they are having difficulty and that they will coordinate refunds someday to everyone that has purchased with them. Someday. I have not heard from anyone at their company yet, and am still out $1,695. Hopefully, I will get my refund eventually. Doesn't sound like I'm the only person in this situations either (Obviously I'm not, my buddy was screwed too). So, if you are thinking of booking a cool hog hunt like we were... BUYER BEWARE!

Check in process went smooth, they allowed observers to stay for the classroom part, and we were able to take pictures and video of the flight.

My son and I just left Silverlake Driving School and I have never experienced such a level of…read moreunprofessionalism. My daughter attended years ago without a problem. My son did everything online 2 years ago and received his permit. All he needed was the road test. I called and set an appointment for 11:30 and was told to bring proof of insurance and the permit. When I went in to pay, the woman was asking for a certificate. I told her when we made the appointment, we were not told to bring any certificate and that he has been through the preliminaries 2 years ago and already has a permit. I didn't mind the fact that she was telling us to bring a certificate. All I would have to do is download a copy and bring it back. The actual problem was her rudeness. She proceeded to tell my son that she texted him the information last night. I informed her that she couldn't have, because she does not have his number, and I made the appointment. He is not a student of the school. We are independent of the school, just looking to take an adult road test. She insisted that she texted him and that she dots all her i's and crosses her t's. She then leaned back in her chair and continued to rudely drink her soda. I told her that we were going to take our money someplace else. She mumbled stupid nigger under her breath as I was storming out. I turned around and went back in and asked her for a manager's name or someone over her. She leaned in and said, "No, I'm not giving it to you!" For her to be so bold she may not suffer any consequences and feels comfortable behaving in that manner, but I just want the public to know the level of ignorance I dealt with today. She would not give me her name, but she is an obese woman with unkept, dark blondish, hair. She looks to be about 45 to 50 years old and obviously works the front desk at times. I believe her name to be Patty Reese. I have also contacted the Texas dept of Licensing and Regulation to file a complaint and will let everyone I know with teens looking to get their license, that Pearland driving school and its affiliate Silverlake driving school is not the place to go. I also plan to tell this story to a Houston-based podcast that discusses matters such as this. We have already gotten better treatment at Houston Driving School. I really wish I would have contacted them first.
