Why fly with me

Training built around how you actually fly.

Whether you're working toward your private pilot certificate or flying your own Cirrus, lessons focus on the real decisions and skills you'll use every flight, not just passing the checkride.

Experience in the airplanes you fly.

I instruct in Cessna 172s, a 172RG, and the Cirrus SR22, and I've flown turbine equipment, so training reflects how these airplanes actually fly.

One contact for the whole airplane.

Training, safety pilot flights, contract flying, and when the time comes, buying or selling. When something comes up with your airplane, you call one person.

Have your own aircraft at a nearby airport?

I'm more than willing to travel to surrounding airports to train with you.

Aircraft sales

Thinking about your next airplane, or what your current one is worth?

I sell Cirrus and high-performance owner-flown aircraft across the Southeast, and I fly what I sell. Tell me about your airplane and I'll give you a straight answer, even if the answer is "wait."
