Train in a Land of Incredibly Diverse Beauty
Secret Spots Throughout...
Our NW Nevada operation bases from the Reno-Stead Airport. It's home to the famous Reno Air Races and provides quick and easy access to lake beds and other secret landing zones amongst the stark landscapes of Nevada's basins and ranges.
Lake Tahoe, a gorgeous gem of the High Sierra, is just minutes away. Flying over its deep blue-green waters is an experience no one will forget. It's a wonderful playground for learning to fly in high density altitude environments. We try not to let its beauty distract us!
All this gives us a great setting for nearly any type of flight training, including those just beginning their learn-to-fly adventure. The weather is typically so clear you can see a hundred miles and a dozen nearby, friendly airports keep things fun.
Nearby Reno International Airport provides easy airline access. Hotels and restaurants are available in Reno itself, or just up the hill for those wanting to combine their flight training with a unique mountain vacation.
