The Flight School

     Palm Coast Aviation Flight School is an informal yet a very professional flight school that prides itself in personalized flight training.  All of the instructors are experienced airmen that do not make their living providing flight instruction!  They are either retired or work in other jobs and teach flying for the pure love of it.

     The school is headed by a retired airline captain who teaches for the pure love of aviation.  Several other high time instructors round out the staff such that someone is always available 24/7.

     The school offers FAA pilot ratings for sport pilot, private pilot, and commercial pilot.  We do airplane single and multi-engine land, and instrument flight instructor.

     Aircraft ratings are offered in single-engine land airplanes, tail-wheel endorsements, multi-engine land, and instrument pilot.  Arrangements can also be made for single and multi-engine seaplane right on our airfield.

     All necessary ground school classes are available.  They can be done in a formal class or individually working at one's own pace.

     Having our own maintenance people on staff insures that mechanical discrepancies are immediately taken care of.  We have very little down time of our aircraft which insures outstanding availability of aircraft for you.
