Bario Aviation Inc. 401 North Frank Luke Drive, San Antonio, TX 78226

"I have received flight training from a variety of part 61, part 141, collegiate and military programs, and I can confidently say that the most enriching and educational experience I’ve had in 10 years in the industry has come from Mario and his team at Bario Aviation. The culture of this school and the teaching styles employed are truly exceptional and helped me reach my goal of becoming a Certified Flight Instructor. Can’t thank them enough! HIGHLY recommended!"

"Bario offers a very welcoming environment for people interested in flying but do not have any idea of how to start. It’s also a great place for pilots who want to go out and learn and grow professionally as an aviator. Other services such as maintenance and hangar spaces are offered."

"Great flight school and flying club, located at Port San Antonio - where you can see a cool variety of military and civilian traffic. This is a great place to learn to interact with Air Traffic Control in an excellent learning environment."

"Came here to finish what I started 16 years ago - my private pilot license (PPL). They definitely have a variety of CFIs to choose from if one doesn't fit your personality/learning style. Their prices are a little higher than others, but I honestly believe they train you to be a pilot (not to simply pass the checkride at the end). I've begun training for my subsequent ratings at another school simply because they accept VA payments. Otherwise, I would've stayed here. Any instructor I've come across is impressed with the level of scrutiny I hold myself to and the level of accuracy of my flying capability and I attribute this to my instructor from this school. Definitely recommend this school for anyone - beginner or higher level. P.S. they're also set up in an environment that forces you to talk to ATC on the regular, so you'll get over those fears ASAP! Youll also get to experience maneuvering through 3 different airspaces almost every time you fly. You definitely get the experience you need from here!"
