I contacted JAXAERO and eventually spoke with Jon Rutledge. He was extremely helpful and prompt getting me set up for a rental checkout flight as well as reserving the aircraft for me to fly around FL afterwards. After giving it some thought, I decided to travel to FL for a few days in advance of my vacation to do the checkout flight and knock out my commercial long XC. Jon promptly rearranged everything and got me all set up with the rental checkout and the reservations.
Upon arrival to JAXAERO I was greeted by so many kind, passionate, and professional aviators, including the owner, to help me get started with the checkout process. The owner is extremely passionate about aviation and I could tell he strives for excellence in customer service at his flight school. The hanger has a relaxed but professional vibe and I was made to immediately feel at home.
My rental checkout was with Idris Algabyali. He is an excellent flight instructor and a passionate aviator. He was very professional and prompt leading up to, during, and after the checkout. He helped me with all the details pertaining to the aircraft rental. He provided me with very informative ground sessions pre/post flight. During those sessions, I learned how efficiently JAXAERO's process is to check-out/check-in their aircraft. We shared with each other why we are both passionate about aviation and what inspired us to do what we do. We then had a great checkout flight and he even helped me improve some aspects pertaining to my landing technique.
I had a wonderful experience flying JAXAERO's beautiful, well-maintained, and well-equipped Skyhawk SP all around Florida the following day for my commercial long XC. I'm looking forward to flying it again on my FL vacation! I'm very grateful for all of the excellent service I received while I was there by their entire staff. If you are or will be in the Northeastern FL area, I highly recommend this flight school!
from the start. The onboarding process was super smooth, and everyone made me feel welcome right away. Jon Rutledge gave me an awesome tour and was really professional. He and the rest of the team made me feel good about choosing this school for my training.
Shoutout to my instructor, Idris Algabyali, who’s been fantastic. He’s super professional, knows his stuff, and is really patient, which makes learning to fly a lot easier. All in all, the great staff and solid instruction are why I’m so glad I chose this place. Definitely recommend it!
