Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Hannah Grace Cook

"Micah and Dante are awesome pilots, and down to earth people. As a fixed wing pilot, they gave me my first helicopter flight. Safety is number one to me, and I could tell Dante (who was my CFI that day) was extremely proficient and knowledgeable at his craft. Not to mention a totally inspiring person as an Italian Navy Seal. I’ve worked with many CFI’s in aviation—not many can explain systems as *throughly* & *on the spot* as Dante. Keep it up guys! Thanks for the fun day."

Kale Stephens

"Very proactive in scheduling flights with very knowledgeable and friendly instructors. Great experience!"

Michael Autrey

"One of the best times we have ever experienced! Took a tour around lake LBJ for our anniversary and we were thrilled with the whole experience. Dante made us feel so safe and was extremely helpful with everything from start to finish. Wish I could click 100 Stars!!"

Casey Watson

"10/10 experience. Dante is a knowledgeable guy and the r44 is brand new can't beat it"

Francesca Cavallari
