Training that Creates Pilots

Our flight training is the launchpad for future aviators. We offer a structured, hands-on curriculum tailored to move you efficiently from your initial training phases through the attainment of your Private Pilot, Instrument, and Commercial ratings. Our commitment goes beyond simply earning a license; we instill the airmanship, discipline, and decision-making skills required for a lifetime of safe and successful flying. If you have ever looked up and dreamed of taking the controls, the experienced instructors at Phoenix Flight Services are here to make that dream come true.

Ready to take the Controls? Our 30-minute Discovery Flight is the perfect thrilling introduction to aviation. You won’t just be a passenger - you’ll sit in the pilot’s seat alongside an FAA-certified instructor (CFI) and take the yoke yourself.

Experience the breathtaking views and the pure joy of flight as you soar above Lake Huron and the Au Sable River. Learn basic maneuvers, understand how the controls feel, and get the answers to all your questions about learning to fly. It’s an unforgettable, hands-on experience that will ignite your passion for becoming a pilot!
