Did this as a gift for my husband on his birthday and it was absolutely amazing! From the initial communication, to day of with Kyle our pilot who was absolutely phenomenal. He taught my husband so much in the little time we had and the view was spectacular. We will definitely do this again!

Incredible experience! I have never flown before and these guys let me land and take off mostly on my own twice! It is an awesome experience to fly over Sal Lake, and you can even ask for extreme experiences like nose diving and stalling midair. I highly recommend going for a demo flight, at least, it’s a great deal.

Birds Eye Aviation has been an incredible experience so far. I’m currently in their program after leaving another flight school, and the difference is night and day. The environment here is clean, professional, and well-organized, which makes a huge impact on learning and confidence. What truly sets Birds Eye apart is the instructors.

Had an incredible discovery flight at Bird’s Eye View. As someone aiming for a commercial career, I was impressed by how much they tailored the experience to my goals. The owner, Andrew, was very welcoming and gave me some great insights into the industry right away. My instructor, Kyle, was fantastic! He was patient, clear with his advice, and even let me take the controls for more than I expected (taxiing, takeoff,…

Planning Your Training Here

Planning training at a local school like Birds Eye View Aviation - Flight School 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 West Jordan, the three friction points that stretch part-time timelines.

What Flying in Utah Teaches You

Utah is mountain flying's front door: high field elevations, real density altitude arithmetic, and terrain that makes weather-and-route planning a first-order skill. Students train under Salt Lake's Class B with the Wasatch Range as a constant reference, and graduate comfortable in the kind of terrain that intimidates flatland pilots.

How to Evaluate Birds Eye View Aviation - Flight School 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 West Jordan means building your early hours in Utah 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 Birds Eye View Aviation - Flight School

How long would my training take here?
