Our training fleet currently consists of twenty-two A36 Bonanzas and eleven B58 Barons maintained under an FAA accepted Phase Inspection program written by IASCO for our specific maintenance requirements.

We have a proven commitment to safety, 35 years of flight training experience, 500,000 plus injury-free training hours, and have been an FAA Diamond Award Winner since 1995.
