Testimonials

I had an amazing experience getting my PPL at Piston2Jet. Everyone there was professional and friendly, and took my training as seriously as I did. They were up front from the beginning, and helped me understand from the start what it would take and what to expect. I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in learning to fly!

Eric S.

Highly recommend without reservation. The ever professional crew at P2J were instrumental in allowing me to earn my multi-engine add on without ever feeling like I was training for the test or cutting corners. Mike and Doug (Smash) provided world class instruction in the aircraft and detailed feedback throughout the process ensuring that the next lesson truly built on the previous and focused on those areas needing improvement. Claire and Julian also contributed their knowledge and insights as we studied toward our ME ratings. Even Sierra and Jack at the front desk made sure the overall experience was both friendly and professional.
The love for aviation is clear across the organization and their enthusiasm is contagious.

I completed the Part 141 Test Pilot program. The course was challenging but very accessible. While there was obviously a lot of physics, you don't really need to know more than basic algebra. You will want to have above average stick and rudder skills, but I think that goes without saying. Doug (the instructor) has an impressive amount of real world experience and he does a wonderful job of converting it into practical insights. If you're going to test fly piston powered aircraft (including EAB aircraft), you'd be wise to take this course!!!
