Aero Elite Flight Training

Aero Elite Flight Training is a flight school in Northern Virginia that also rents aircraft. The company runs training locations in Leesburg, Winchester, Manassas and Norfolk in Virginia, and in Fort Washington in Maryland. The site also says the company has acquired GT Aviation.

The school offers private pilot license training, instrument rating, tailwheel endorsement, multi-engine rating, commercial pilot license training and certified flight instructor training. The site says it provides private pilot license flight instruction and aircraft rentals, and it offers training financing and an enrollment kit purchase.

The site says the school has over 75 flight instructors. It says a student can match with an instructor who fits their schedule. The school also has a partnership with Purdue Global listed on its site.

The school's fleet includes Cessna 172 S, N, P and R models at each location, Piper Archer II, Piper Cherokee 140, and Piper Cherokee 180. The site says the Cessna 172 cruises at about 120 knots and seats up to four. It says the Piper Archer and Cherokee models are good lower cost training options.

The school offers discovery flights. A student flies one on one with an instructor, who handles the pre-flight check, takeoff and landing. The student then takes the controls. The site says riders aged 12 and older can come along as guests when an adult is the main participant. Photos and videos are allowed on flights.

The site lists a phone number of 571-831-3170. It also has social media pages on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube, and an invitation to visit the runway, see the fleet and meet the instructors before enrolling.
