What Students and Pilots Say

★★★★★ 1 year ago

I can’t recommend this place enough! Just yesterday I took my first discovery flight. My flight instructor, Usak (I probably butchered the spelling on that), was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He answered all the questions I had and it was overall a great experience. I fully intend on returning for flight lessons.

I did my private, instrument, and commercial training here. The instructors I worked with were knowledgable, reasonable, and very professional. You can tell they really care about their students, and none of them were there to just get to 1500 hours. Vicky, in particular, is the most competent CFI I've flown with. If you're ever having trouble understanding a subject, she will always have a way of simplifying it and …

I cannot say enough nice things about this school. I have wanted to learn to fly since I have been a kid. I recently purchased the introductory flight and went out with my instructor Tess. Tess did an excellent job answering my questions, she explained everything very well, shortly after taking off she asked if I was ready to try flying and without any hesitation I took the controls and flew and I knew right then a…

I've been wanting to learn how to fly since I was a kid. But it never seemed like I could fit it in. This year my wife set up a surprise discovery flight for my birthday. It was incredible! My instructor, Brian, was fantastic. Super chill, friendly, encouraging, and supportive. I'm surprised how much I actually got to fly the plane so early in my learning process. (And was a little more nervous than I thought …

Planning Your Training Here

Planning training at a local school like Horizon Aviation, Inc. trades the academy's speed for flexibility and often meaningfully lower total cost. The pay-as-you-fly model keeps your money in your control, and training two to three lessons weekly around work is the proven rhythm, enough frequency to retain skills without the academy's all-in schedule. The variable to manage is momentum: local-school students who succeed book standing lesson slots, fly year-round, and treat ground study as homework rather than something that happens at the airport. Ask about aircraft scheduling depth, instructor availability on your target days, and examiner wait times in Warwick, the three friction points that stretch part-time timelines.

What Flying in Rhode Island Teaches You

Rhode Island packs coastal flying into a state you can cross on one practice flight: Narragansett Bay's sea breeze and fog cycles, Providence's Class C structure, and the Boston-New York corridor flowing overhead. Small geography, grown-up airspace.

How to Evaluate Horizon Aviation, Inc. on Your Tour

Every school on this directory gets the same advice from us, because the fundamentals don't move. Walk the ramp and count how many aircraft are down for maintenance. Ask how many lessons a week they can actually schedule you, and how far out the booking calendar runs. Ask for first-attempt checkride pass rates and how long students wait for an examiner. And keep your money in your control: pay as you fly, or in small blocks with clear refund terms.

Then weigh the location itself. Training in Warwick means building your early hours in Rhode Island weather and airspace, and both become part of your airmanship. Our school-selection guide covers the full vetting checklist, and the financing page maps scholarships and loans that apply at schools like this one.

Common Questions About Training at Horizon Aviation, Inc.

How long would my training take here?

Part-time students flying two to three lessons weekly typically earn a private certificate in six to twelve months and a commercial certificate in two to three years, with pace set by your calendar and the weather. Consistency decides everything: standing lesson slots beat sporadic bursts by months.

What will it cost, and can I get help paying?

Get Horizon Aviation, Inc.'s current rates directly; published numbers age fast in this industry. Nationally, plan on $80,000 to $120,000 from zero time to commercial certificates before instructing pay starts offsetting costs. Our financing guide maps the loans, scholarships, and airline cadet programs that apply here, and several scholarship cycles go undersubscribed every single year.

How should I arrange a visit?

Call ahead and ask for a tour on a normal training day, not a quiet one. Use the directions button above to plan the drive to Warwick, arrive early enough to watch ramp operations, and bring the vetting checklist from this page. A school proud of its operation will show you everything; hesitation is itself an answer.
