Piston2Jet Named Military Training Services Provider of the Year by Aerospace and Defense Review

Manassas, VA – 19 December 2024 — Piston2Jet, a premier flight school specializing in

personalized aviation training, is excited to announce its recognition as the Top Military Training Services Provider for 2024 by Aerospace and Defense Review. This honor underscores the school’s commitment to offering world-class training that prepares students for successful careers in both civilian and military aviation.


Co-founded by Doug Yurovich, Chief Flight Instructor and Chief Test Pilot, Piston2Jet provides

a unique flight training experience that emphasizes not only technical proficiency but also the

mental resilience, discipline, and confidence needed to succeed in the skies. Located in

Manassas, Virginia, the school’s programs are designed to equip students with the skills

necessary for everything from private flight certifications to advanced commercial training and

test pilot courses.


“We are honored to be recognized by Aerospace and Defense Review,” said Yurovich, “Our

focus has always been on providing a personalized training experience that builds both the

technical skills and the mental fortitude necessary for success in aviation. This recognition

affirms the hard work of our team, and we are proud to continue shaping the future of

aviation through hands-on, high-quality flight training.”


What sets Piston2Jet apart is its emphasis on hands-on learning. The school features a “flight lab” environment where students can practice in real-world conditions, with instructors who

bring decades of military and aviation experience to every lesson. In addition, Piston2Jet offers specialized programs like the FAA-certified Part 141 Test Pilot Course, created by Yurovich using his own experience as a former test pilot at Patuxent River Naval Air Station.


Piston2Jet’s flight training programs are designed to accommodate students from all walks of

life. Whether they are high school students looking to become future pilots, working

professionals balancing flight school with their careers, or adults pursuing a lifelong dream of

flying, the school’s flexible scheduling and personalized instruction ensure that all students can achieve their aviation goals.


The recognition from Aerospace and Defense Review also highlights Piston2Jet’s continued

growth. The school is working to expand its services through new initiatives, including plans to become a Flight Training Center (FTC) in collaboration with an aviation training entity in Akron,



Ohio. Additionally, the school is pursuing GI Bill funding to make flight training more accessible to veterans, further demonstrating its commitment to expanding opportunities for future pilots.
