Great for a Rusty Pilot
I'm a Rusty Pilot. Ex-Navy guy who is getting into GA after 20 out of the cockpit. FLY8MA's lessons were easy to digest and even reminded me of some of the things that are still applicable (note: it isn't NDBs). The lessons were a fantastic add to AOPA's Rusty Pilot course, FAA Wings programs and my FAR/AIM review. Easily passed my BFR and IPC. Highly recommended.
I got 90% on the FAA Private Pilot Written Test!
I used Fly8ma's Premium Private Pilot Ground School and the Private Pilot Written Test Bootcamp to do my ground school and prep for the test. They were awesome! The content is exceptional, easy to understand, and they are very prompt in answering questions as well as fixing issues in the rare event one is found. Thank you fly8ma for assisting me so well!
Commercial Checkride!
I used Fly8MA's commercial checkride prep course and passed with no problems! There is fantastic content, and in depth explanations you can't get anywhere else. I highly recommend Fly8MA to anyone at any stage in flight training!
Game changer!
I used FLY8MA for Instrument and passed my checkride in October 2020! I am using it for Commercial now. I just passed my written. I think the material is so fantastic. Reading it, hearing it, and seeing it has helped tremendously. I will continue using the program for the rest of my ratings. I have tried many pilot resources. This is by far the best one! Thank you to everyone at FLY8MA!
I passed the test with a 95% score !!
I passed the test with a 95% score - thank you Fly8ma & Jon!! The course delivery method was so unique and effective. Short videos kept me going and the way everything was explained is incredible. I liked the way how boring topics like regulations and visibility numbers were categorized, really helped me memorize them. I can't believe I remember the VFR visibility rules for all airspace categories now :) Good work there designing these courses the way they are!
Very well organized learning material
Stephen I’m currently learning and studying for my written private pilot test and find the material great. I’ve called several times and spoke with Jon personally and find this most impressive. I’ve emailed with questions and they are followed up with an answer. I would recommend their program to everyone who is looking for real world aviation examples. I’m 60 hours into my private pilot training and wish I had started here first. Fantastic job with putting together your training material. Thank You
Organized and Clear
I used the Private Pilot course and it was very organized and clear. If I needed to review anything it was very easy to go back and find exactly what I was looking for.
Real examples of what to expect for CFI
I am in a program that teaches me great content and piloting skills, but doesn't really give me any EXAMPLES of what to expect in my CFI checkride. I found Jon's CFI oral at Lufthansa in Goodyear, AZ EXTREMELY helpful. It turned out that my DPE had different expectations of me than Jon's; he wanted me to just teach more than have a Q&A session. But, to see examples of how to discuss the different elements of each area of operation and how to intertwine some elements of even different areas of operations was incredibly helpful to get me more prepared and ultimately more relaxed and comfortable teaching these tasks. The series of videos for this oral exam are lengthy (my oral exam was 8 hours long, so these are shorter in comparison), but well worth the watch! Take notes!
This team will get you through your pilot journey
I have been following FLY8MA.com for a while now and I could always rely upon their explanations or clarifications whenever I was kind of confused. These guys will without any doubt get you through any aviation training with such a simplicity but very efficient explanations. I got my private pilot as well as my instrument rating with such an easiness thanks to FLY8MA.com. You really have to blindly trust them or you gonna miss something !!! Now unfortunately I am back in Belgium and things are tougher over here. We do not have such people to explain things the way it should !!! Anyway, I am really grateful for having the pleasure to watch outstanding videos, learn extremely relevant tips and information. So grateful. Thank you ever so much guys you ROCK.
Outstanding!
If you want a course to get your instrument rating… This is the one to get! I’m a 67-year-old private pilot who got my license when I was in high school and now, after being retired, I am ready to go into fullbore aviation fun! John‘s videos are short & to the point, with no messing around. Easy to understand and if you don’t get it, email him, or call him, and you will get a response very quickly. I am highly impressed.
