Had my first ever introductory flight here. Must say it was an unforgettable experience in every positive way. Not only did I feel comfortable asking any question- the staff didn’t make you feel stupid. I felt like I could ask anything. My Instructor who flew with me was also very professional, let me take controls early and was extremely calm even when I was extremely nervous. I think it’s great when someone is always that calm, it gives a small sense of security which I believe is just essential for learning how to fly, and for also being a great instructor. I must say the prices also seem extremely fair.

Some schools will make you fly for at LEAST 9 months to a year before you get your PPL, and will milk the most money out of you, however with this school- its truly just up to you. Guys are great, can’t wait to finish my PPL with them.

I can’t say enough amazing things about JaxAero! From day one, the entire experience was professional, supportive, and genuinely inspiring. Thanks to their top-notch training program, I was able to earn my private pilot’s license with confidence and skill.

A huge shoutout to my instructor, Charlie—an absolutely incredible teacher. He was patient, knowledgeable, and always made sure I fully understood everything, both in the air and on the ground. His calm and encouraging approach made even the more challenging moments feel manageable, and he truly went above and beyond to help me succeed.

If you’re thinking about learning to fly, I highly recommend JaxAero. They create a positive, motivating environment that sets you up for success. I’m so grateful for this experience!
