I have always wanted to learn how to fly but there was always something that got in the way. Earlier this year I decided to commit and finally make this... read more dream happen! I’ve researched a lot of the Aviation schools in Las Vegas and finally decided to give Vegas Aviation a try. They have a really nice fleet of C172’s, excellent rates, and very personable and knowledgeable CFIs. Many would say the same about their school of choice, however last night Vegas Aviation went above and beyond to help me and a friend out and now will forever have my support and business. Backstory: Aviation is tough! And sometimes we get stuck doing the same things over and over again. To break the cycle, I’ve been taking flight lessons at all the different places I visit. One of those places was SF. I met a really amazing CFI there and have become great friends! She was finally visiting me in my hometown, and I wanted to reciprocate her kindness and generosity by checking off a bucket list item (Night flight over Las Vegas). We scheduled a flight in advance, however due to some scheduling conflicts it looked like we weren’t going to get to go anymore 😞… I asked my old Vegas Aviation CFI, Ngaio if he knew anybody that could take us up last minute. He worked on a solution for us all night and the very next day .…. BOOM! A few hours later we were flying above the Vegas strip with the owner of Vegas Aviation! As a business owner myself, I have SO MUCH respect for Business owners who are willing to go above and beyond.The fact that Ngaio has this relationship with the owner, Louis speaks volumes! Louis was very personable and you could tell that he LOVES aviation! He was happy to be there and he took us on an amazing flight and shared extensive knowledge. Honestly, i feel like I’ve made a life long friend! Louis and Ngaio, THANK YOU so much for making this an unforgettable experience. Vegas Aviation will be my GO TO school and top recommendation for all my certificates and airplane maintenance needs! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Vanessa Castillo
Very disappointed in their policy and lack of support to keep children encouraged in their journey to become pilots. I am active duty airforce and my children have done discovery... read more flights in different states. I worked at Nellis AFB and My children were turned away from this flight school because we are not residents of Nevada; again the intent was to sign up for Discovery Flights. A policy that doesn't allow children the oppurtunity to fly in new environments (regardless of primary residence) defeats the purpose of a discovery flight! Little does Kevin know, these cadets could be stationed right at Nellis AFB! Update: (since I cant reply to the owner) Your website: WHAT IS A DISCOVERY FLIGHT? A Discovery Flight is an aviation experience where YOU actually get to take the controls and fly the airplane under the safety and guidance of our expert Certified Flight Instructor (CFI), followed by a post-flight summary briefing. Your flight time actually counts toward private pilot requirements and can be entered in your Pilot Log Book! I reached out to schedule and the email response was unprofessional and presumptive "we do not provide sightseeing flights". The "policy" mentioned in the owners response is not what is written on your website. Feedback: include on your website that you only make time for discovery flight for people who will also sign a contract to attend your flight school. That would be a more accurate description of your policy. Or, your representatives can ASK the customer what their intent is instead of assuming.
