Our primary trainer is the Aeroprakt A-22LS — a roomy, reliable
aircraft with excellent visibility and dual-instruction controls.
It comfortably fits pilots up to 6’4” and 300 lbs, with stunning
views through its large windscreen and bubble doors.
We provide either a room in our lodge or RV parking for
students bringing their own rig. This is included with all
current programs.
➤ We train up to 15 students per year
➤ Season runs from April through early November
➤ Most students finish checkrides in October or November

work directly with your local instructor to ensure you meet
