Commercial Pilot Training

My son Renz, a senior in High School, goes to Vegas Aviation for his PPL and recently did his first solo. 😊 A proudest moment a mother can have but a... read more very nerve wrenching one too. As a non aviation family from the Philippines, with zero knowledge about aviation, Tom and Lydia had been really welcoming to us, answering all of our questions, explaining everything and helping us through this exciting journey. My son’s instructor Paniau is beyond amazing. He is always ready to answer our questions any time of the day. He treats my son like his brother and cares about him. We are so happy and proud to be part of the Vegas Aviation family.❤️ This is your sign to be part of this flight school if you are looking for the right one for you.

Today was my first solo, and I would like to thank my CFI Brad for making it fun! Highly recommend.

Great place to rent from or learn to fly! Currently, they have a fleet of 3 Cessna 172N aircraft and a simulator. Aircraft are always maintained and also have upgraded... read more interiors compared to other Cessna 172Ns. Instructors and mechanics are friendly as well and will cater to anyone’s needs. Highly recommend!

One of the best flight schools around! Vegas Aviation has some of the most friendly staff i’ve ever seen, including my awesome flight instructor Geo. On top of that, their... read more amazing maintenance makes sure their planes are always in perfect condition. Thanks to Geo, I just flew my first solo, and i’m excited to continue my training. Would definitely recommend!

Reached out to Vegas Aviation to arrange a short sightseeing flight with my family and we had a blast. The team was very professional and the CFI who flew with... read more us (Haylee) went above and beyond to make of this a great experience. 100% recommended!!!

Discovery flight was an 11/10 experience for me! I showed up early and started throwing a bunch of questions at one of the pilots at the desk, Kevin, and he... read more was patient with me throughout the whole thing. Dorian was my flight instructor and showed me the same patience throughout the pre-flight, up in the air, and even walked us back out to the planes to take more pictures. I was also able to perform maneuvers in the plane and land and take off with assistance that he seemed fit. Considering this was my first flight experience, I can definitely see myself committing time and money to enroll in this flight school. Thank you guys

Vegas Aviation is the industry leader when it comes to Part 61 schools. Mitchell T. is a very knowledgeable airman instructor and his talent to share this with his students... read more cannot be beat. This facility is one of very few places that has 100% their own licensed and in house aircraft maintenance. This is key to a successful, safe, and reliable aircraft operation. Hats off V.A !!

Vegas Aviation is great! Their instructors (especially Haylee, she's AWESOME) are super knowledgeable and nice and they focus all their attention on the student. This is the way to go... read more for part 61 learning in Southern Nevada.

Top notch facility!

Planes are ok but there is a nice amount of them. I do wish they were newer but that just being picky. Love the instructors a lot and the facility... read more is great. once they upgrade their fleet it'll be five stars fs

Great flight school if you are looking to rent a plane to fly around in the area or go to the Grand Canyon. I already came with a US PPL,... read more and as always had to do a flight beforehand in order to be able to rent the aircraft afterwards. Due to strong winds, my flight with the instructor had to be cancelled, but was rescheduled without any problems for the next day where the winds were better. After the flight with the professional instructor Flore, I went up to Page via the Grand Canyon to experience the once in lifetime view. I will definitely come back again to go flying in the area. Thanks again Vegas Aviation!

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.

Best Flight School!

Had an amazing experience with Vegas Aviation. Pricing was more than fair. Instruction was to the point and taught in a fun and simple way to understand. The people at... read more the front desk and office were all amazing and super friendly. Overall it felt like they cared about my training and not just getting me in and out of their plane to the next student. I would highly recommend coming here for any and all flight training needs.

I took my first discovery flight with Flore who was an amazing instructor. She was thorough throughout the entire flying procedure and I learned so much. Thank you Vegas Aviation... read more !

Vegas Aviation's team went above and beyond in helping me achieve my goal of becoming a private pilot. This flight school is deeply committed to safety, and they work diligently... read more to perfect their instruction. My instructor, Brad, demonstrated an exceptional understanding of aviation and consistently pushed me to become the best version of myself. He even used his personal time to find me a DPE (Designated Pilot Examiner) when I was in a time crunch. I couldn't be more pleased with this flight school's professionalism and dedication. If you want the best experience, choose Vegas Aviation.

This is by far the most professional and knowledgeable group of people I have gotten to work with. I flew with Brad and Flore and they were awesome in helping... read more me build some flight hours. If you’re are looking to fly go here!

Excellent overall experience at VA. Highly motivated and knowledgeable instructors, maintenance on sight, and a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.

I've used a variety of flight schools in the Las Vegas Area, and Vegas Aviation has definitely been the best one. My main concerns at the beginning of my flight... read more training were the quality and availability of the planes and instructors, but none of that has been a problem for me during my time here. Another major concern of mine was pricing. I will say that rental prices are slightly higher than other flight schools in the area, but through getting my Private Pilot License I learned that you get what you pay for. If I could start my training all over again I would picked Vegas Aviation sooner to save more time and money in the long run.

everyone is super nice, instructor are always super helpful

I love the school and how their CFI’s all have different teaching styles. They’re so into helping each student that walks into their doors.

Had a great intro flight back in May. I will definitely reach back out to schedule flying lessons once I start with the online training

Im a newer student at Vegas Aviation and i cant ask for anything more in a flight school. The planes are very clean and well maintained by in house mechanics.... read more My instructor Haylee Rolnick has been amazing to me and im excited to continue training with her!

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!

A huge shoutout to this amazing flight school! Got checked out in a 172, very quick process and great customer service. I highly recommend going here!

Great school. Thank you for the discovery flight!

This has got to be one of the best flight schools around. There isn’t a single thing I would change!

incredible!!

Currently working towards my PPL and just did my solo flight, I wanted to share that I am extremely satisfied with Vegas Aviation so far. 👍🏻 The planes are... read more consistently well-maintained and they have a dedicated in-house maintenance team that works around the clock to make sure the planes are ready for use. I appreciate that the school has a good amount of planes which makes it easier on scheduling flexibility. As a person who travels for work and takes lessons whenever I can fit it in my busy week, they always work with my schedule which is great. I never really had any issues in booking a lesson at a desired time that worked for me. Additionally, the instructors here at Vegas Aviation are professional and want their students to succeed with safety as a priority. The quality of instruction, rental costs, fleet reliability, and professionalism really make this school the best. I will recommend this school to anyone wanting to pursue their ratings at a quality school!

Awesome experience!! Had a great time on my 1st flight !✈️ everyones nice and helpful and want to see you succeed !

I highly recommend Vegas aviation flight school to anyone looking to learn flying from scratch or getting another rating. They are flexible and work with your learning needs. Having their... read more in house maintenance is a huge plus, because planes are not normally out of service for a long time. I have the privilege to be instructed by Haylee. It doesn’t take much time around her to notice how truly professional and passionate about everything aviation she is. Her passion along with her commitment to her students gives you the tools you need to to learn how to fly. I met her while I was trying to convert my license from another country to FAA, she took the time to research the best and most efficient way to go about that for me. Her thorough and up-to-date mastery of tools used in today’s aviation are second to none. I had my ppl license at a very small remote airport (mostly class G airspace) where most of my radio experience is announcing my position and intentions to other pilots that I already know personally. Haylee worked extensively with me on my radio skills and gaining the mic confidence to be flying in the very busy Vegas air space. It is still a work in progress, but I wouldn’t have done it without her guidance. I also really like how she asks “and what do you think the answer is?” Every time I ask a question before giving me her own answer. That question allows her to gauge her students’ knowledge and also to instil the “think before you ask or act” skill that all pilots need. There is no doubt that I am a better pilot today because of the skills that Haylee taught me and I now have a solid base to expand upon. Another benefit is that I now have a fellow pilot and trusted friend to make this journey down the road of aviation a lot more enjoyable. Now I have the passion…Thank you Haylee and thank you Vegas Aviation!

Love the CFIs and I’m learning a lot here while studying for my private license!

Just got my CPL at Vegas Aviation. Great staff and CFI’s.

From the moment I arrived, the entire staff was incredibly kind, welcoming,... read more and attentive. They explained everything clearly, gave me a tour of the place, and made sure I felt comfortable and excited throughout the process. The flight itself was amazing, getting to sit in the cockpit, feel the controls, and feel the freedom of flying above Las Vegas was a dream coming true. I deeply thank Vegas Aviation staff, Tom, Lukas and Roxana.

If you’re looking for a flight school out in Las Vegas or in the nation then I highly recommend Vegas Aviation!!!! The owner of the school is all about paying... read more it forward towards future pilots!!! He hires the best employees ever and CFI’s (Certified Flight Instructor)!!! The dynamic of the school is not about ME it’s about “WE” and I love that feeling as a new student. Everybody at that school is all about helping everyone out and looking after each other. OMG Lilou is seriously by far the best Certified Flight Instructor ever!!!!! She is incredibly energetic and kindhearted!!! She is extremely intelligent and she has set goals planned out for her students so get ready!!!!! Also a special thanks to Mitch at the front desk he took the time for hours over the phone explaining the school and is the true face of the company, that guy is full of knowledge!! If I could create a slogan for this flight school it would be #WeFlyPayingItFoward Thank you

Very happy with the instruction!

Vegas aviation is the perfect place if you want to test out your flight dreams. You start with one discovery flight and end up sticking with them because they make... read more it that easy. For a flight school to let you pay for your hours as you go is rare. The flexibility is definitely one of the biggest things to praise here. As for the instructors , they really do have some great CFI’s to help you along if your serious about getting your license. I got to fly with Andrew in the beginning and he’s definitely knowledgeable and has real world experience flying for hire. He has a great approach and will condense material for you to where it’s easy to understand because learning something new can always be overwhelming. Overall would recommend you give them a try , if anything it will be a fun flight.

This school is like no other flight school that I have been to. They are so caring and honestly help you with everything you can think of when... read more it comes to training. I have also never seen planes in this good of shape. The maintenance is definitely well taken care of!
