Not sure why there are these 1 star reviews. I was in Reno last week and wanted to fly a Sling. I brought my flight bag and all my gear for this trip. Paul got me in with last minute notice and I got to fly his Sling LSA. Granted, he didn't let me do any landings, that's understandable. He had my log book and saw I had low hours. Not to mention the low wing Sling handles different from a high wing Cessna. All in all, I was totally happy. I will be back in a couple weeks and can't wait to go back into that beautiful aircraft and add more time to my log book. Thanks again Paul

I can’t thank Paul & Michaela enough for their help & support in my flight training. ✈️ I’m finally a licensed pilot! 🏁 I worked with many CFI’s and flight schools and 150 hours later I called Paul to see how they could help. I flew my own airplane with another CFI to Carson City from Las Vegas. They both helped me to understand precision in flight maneuvers and many parts of flying and aeronautical knowledge that I had never learned along the way. I was stubborn, and wanted to give up, and couldn’t imagine coming home and telling my kiddos that I still won’t be able to fly with them. Paul & Michaela helped me to persevere through the challenges, and believed in me when I had a hard time continuing to believe in myself! Thank you both for your patience, hard work, and encouragement. I thought flying solo was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, but actually flying with my kids was one of the most incredible experiences of my life thus far. When I had my little girl in my airplane holding short of the runway for takeoff, the tower responded “23 Papa, cleared for takeoff”. She said “mama, 23 Papa cleared for takeoff”… and my whole heart melted in that moment. I wouldn’t have had this life experience and shared privilege if not for Paul & Michaela. What an incredible team they are. Thank you for positively impacting my life and helping me continue through the finish line 🏁 I am forever grateful. ❤️ I now have an 8-year old co-pilot most captains only dream of! 💫✈️

I came to Paul as a private pilot, recently instrument rated, after owning a trike for two years and not getting much training time in it. Paul answered my calls and made scheduling simple. I accidentally showed up a week ahead of our arranged time to drop off my trike at his hanger and Paul kindly took time away from what he was doing to let me in the hanger so as to not waste my trip for me. Training was clear and comfortable. Paul knows both the regulations and the techniques. I had him complete the annual inspection as it was past due and I was inspired by his thoroughness and genuine concern for my safety. Paul takes cash or card which made transactions easy, and I never had any confusion about what I was paying for. I passed my proficiency check today and I felt well prepared as I departed in my trike for my home airport. Thank you, Paul.

I have always dreamed of becoming a pilot, so I contacted Paul and after several emails decided to go to Carson City to get my license. Paul is an incredible instructor, very patient and explains things very well. His equipment is high quality and well maintained. His online courses are top shelf all the way and well worth the investment.

Paul and his staff, specifically Matt, did a great job working with me to get my sport pilot license for airplanes. They laid a path for me to follow to success and worked with my schedule to achieve my goals. Thanks!
