We guarantee you won't be flying with a brand-new CFI who is just trying to build hours and does not care about you. Come fly with RR Aviation and you will find that you're more than just a number - you'll quickly become a valued member of our aviation family. We strive to ensure safety and promote learning while keeping it cost effective and having fun. We now offer filming and recording of all lessons and flights, if you request it, so you can review, analyze, chair fly, and improve your flying skills after we shut down the engine. Our real world scenario based training will push you to the next level without ever becoming monotonous or boring.
