The Sky's Newest IFR Pilot!

8/7/2018

Congratulations to the sky's newest IFR pilot! Connor is one of the most motivated pilots we have worked with. Earned his PPL just a couple months ago and now his IFR. We also need to mention he pretty much aced his IFR written. The instrument rating is one of the most difficult ratings to achieve but Connor proved that with determination, anything is possible. Awesome job Connor!!

Here To Inspire!

Here at GBA, one of our main goals is to inspire students and pilots, young and old to fully enjoy flying in every way! One of our instructors ran across this quote and passed it on to the rest of us and we are all in agreement of it's truth! We will tell, explain and demonstrate, but our main goal is to INSPIRE!

Can training be this much fun?? Sure it can!! This recent double discovery flight to South Lake Tahoe with GBA's newest Certified Flight Instructor, Jeff Sanders, proved to be everything hoped for! The beauty of Northern Nevada's lakes, mountains and high desert and the fun and excitement of learning to fly has given the flying bug to Jake and Joanna!
