What Students and Pilots Say

★★★★★ 10 months ago

Very satisfied with my experience at Discover Flight. All of the instructors care very much about your training, and I never felt rushed in any aspect of training. My lead instructor Frank was fantastic, and I also was able to spend some flight time with each of the other instructors all of whom were helpful and supportive. The training is fundamentally based "stick and rudder"; while the aircraft aren't the newest…

10/10 recommend for spin/unusual attitude recovery training. Went in to get my spin endorsement. Ground portion before the flight was very informative and well presented. Both the ground and flight training were taught by Blakely, a very talented instructor. I walked out a better pilot, with a new set of skills and deeper understanding. Valuable experience, very impressed.

I did my spin training with Jamie for my CFI and some very brief aerobatics in the spring of 2018. I flew two of Discover Flights planes, both the Pitts and the J-3 cub. The training quality was excellent and Jamie really knows what he's talking about and how to convey his knowledge to a student. I'm looking forward to coming back soon to do my CFI training!

Planning Your Training Here

Planning training at a local school like Discover Flight, LLC 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 Oshkosh, the three friction points that stretch part-time timelines.

What Flying in Wisconsin Teaches You

Wisconsin owns one week of the world's busiest airspace, Oshkosh during EAA AirVenture, when the state becomes aviation's capital and its approach procedures become legend. The other fifty-one weeks deliver Great Lakes weather, hard winters, and a grassroots flying culture as deep as anywhere in America.

How to Evaluate Discover Flight, LLC 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 Oshkosh means building your early hours in Wisconsin 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.

How long would my training take here?
