Wings of Eagles is a great flight school. Fairly priced, friendly and professional instructors, and well equipped planes with modern avionics. Amanda been knowledgeable and helpful getting me back in the cockpit and on path to getting my instrument rating.
Excellent place to learn to fly and enjoy every minute of it. Gracie and the other staff have been very friendly and welcoming and the service is top notch! My instructor (Chas Bingham) really makes flying fun and understandable. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for someone that knows their stuff and is easy to get along with!
Wings of Eagles is a very efficient flight school. The CFIs are attentive and invested in helping students learn safely and efficiently. I particularly like the structure they use to provide education and convenience to student pilots. It can be difficult to find the time and resources to become a pilot, but Wings of Eagles makes it easy to go at your pace with people who are very willing to work with you.
Flight training at Wings of Eagles-MQY has been an enjoyable and equally very productive experience. After completing two FAA certificates here and now working towards a third, I can confidently say their facilities, aircraft, and instructors are all top notch. I cannot speak highly enough about their management and instructors; all individuals who truly care about teaching and have a passion for aviation. Something sometime’s rare for other schools who are just concerned about the bottom dollar. Have had instructors flex their schedules to include weekends to accommodate my needs and allow me to quickly build hours and take a checkride in between my extended periods away.
The WoE fleet is comprehensive and constantly upgraded. Maintenance on their aircraft is reliable and I feel safe every time I rent an aircraft from them. They range from VFR/IFR/complex/high performance/multi-engine; everything needed to continue to progress and broaden any aviator’s experience base.
Their billing and scheduling operations are efficient and utilize Flight Schedule Pro, a streamlined and user-friendly app. They are personable, responsive, competent, and quick to resolve any potential issues; although those have been few and far between.
Looking forward to continuing to fly with Wings of Eagles for both training and leisure!
Wings of Eagles LLC possesses excellent aircraft, facilities and, most importantly, instructors. Their fleet is impressive and comprehensive for students/renters looking to fly VFR/IFR single and multi engine planes, some of which are complex or high performance. WoE’s scheduling interface through Flight Schedule Pro is intuitive, and the woman managing their operations is competent, personable, and communicative. Highly recommend for anyone seeking his/her next FAA certificate.
