    “I signed up for the zero to hero program and have enjoyed every minute of it. It’s been awesome having technologically-advanced aircraft to fly that have been well maintained and cleaned! I always felt well-prepared for my check-rides and recently finished my CFI despite Covid-19 and the major impact it has had on the aviation industry. I’m currently adding my ME to my commercial license and will then be adding my ME to my instructor license and then my instrument add-on to my instructor license as well. I highly recommend FLT Academy if you’re like me and flying is your passion!!!”

    “There are some awesome instructors here that I feel privileged to of been able to fly with and learn from. They have a good variety of planes and I had the chance to learn to fly all of them which was a great experience. They have built a management system that pushes students to excel and to achieve their goals as fast and efficiently as possible. Overall I had a great experience, I hope to work here one day since I just finished all my flight ratings! Highly recommend this school.”

    “FLT Academy was a great school, had really good instructors and a great training plan. I’m glad I used them. I was an RTP student and they worked with me for most of my training. They tried very hard to ensure aircraft were available for time building and had satellite locations like Provo and Ogden available for those not close to Bountiful which was a huge help.”
