"I had nothing but great experiences here. I trained outside the country but had to be in the US to do my practical test, which was a bit of a logistical nightmare to setup coming from outside the country. I contacted this flight school as I wanted to be somewhere with reliable weather, and the initial response was very warm and welcoming, shoutout to Kendra. They were very accepting of my situation, and helped set me up as a temporary student. The first impression was very positive. Super organized, well-maintained aircraft, very positive safety culture, and friendly and amazing people all around. Aaron was nothing short of a great instructor who helped me with the last little bit of checkride prep. All the people I met during my short time there were offering great knowledge, experience, anecdotes, which made it a really great learning atmosphere, and instructors and fellow students were always there to help when needed. If I could move here full time to further my training, I would do it in a heartbeat. Thanks again to Aaron, Kendra, John, Greg, and all the other wonderful people I met during my time here, I hope to be back :)"
"Fly Goodyear exceeded all of our expectations. The team, especially Greg and Gabe, were exceptional! We had the unique experience of training with several other flight schools, but none compared to Fly Goodyear. Other schools were disorganized, but Fly Goodyear was a well-oiled machine. Their aircraft are always in top condition, and their prices are reasonable. What sets Fly Goodyear apart is their commitment to helping their students progress quickly. We highly recommend Fly Goodyear and suggest you start your training with the best to avoid the frustration we experienced. Trust us, Fly Goodyear is the way to go!"
"I just recently did my first solo flight with Fly Goodyear while working on my PPL. My instructor, John, has been an amazing teacher in understanding the fundamental principles of flight and gets me excited to push myself in my training. Everyone here is happy to answer questions and help out where they can. The airport is well managed and are always on top of maintenance and providing good service to the students. I would recommend Fly Goodyear to anyone looking for a great flight school! I'm excited to continue my training here."
"I recently attended this school for their Commercial Multiengine Land add-on program, and I cannot say enough positive things about the whole school. From Kendra to Linda to Drew to Greg, everyone I interacted with was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, passionate, helpful, and easy to get along with. Kendra was so helpful and communicative after I reached out for the details of the program, availability, and scheduling. It was obvious she wanted to help in accommodating my schedule, and she was very responsive if I had any clarifying questions. Linda in the office is so nice! She was really efficient in ensuring that I was all set with paperwork and FlightSchedule Pro to start on time. My instructor, Drew, is a master of his craft. It was such a great experience to learn from him, and he really does an excellent job of managing the flight lessons/goals to the right amount of training without feeling saturated. It really was fun, and I can honestly say this sets this school apart from others that I’ve attended. Even though the procedures, airplane, and knowledge areas were new to me, It wasn’t stressful or difficult to pick everything up solely because of Drew’s experience and teaching style. Lastly, Greg is clearly vested in this school and the success of each student. It’s so refreshing to find a school like this, and It’s obvious that it’s this way because of him. Again, fantastic school, staff, planes, facility, and everything else. You couldn’t go wrong here!"
"This school is great. The instructors are very friendly and won’t hesitate to strike up a conversation with you even if you aren’t their student. The students are interactive with one another and are always down to study together. Finally CFI John is awesome. He is very thorough, funny, and makes the time in the cockpit low stress. He facilitated a flight for my 4 year old son and wife to come up and check out how well i was progressing. They had a great experience and he made it forever memorable for us. The airfield is awesome with a good amount of traffic and a tower to get you really comfortable on the Mic. Would recommend."
