Pilot Makers

About

We Make Better Pilots through the most Complete Flight Training available. Expanding your confidence, skill, marketability, and fun. Let's FLY! Pilot Makers Advanced Flight Academy was founded to give aviators in the Mountain West, and beyond, the opportunity to enhance their flying skills and knowledge through tailwheel and aerobatic training with the belief that expanding our envelope as pilots improves both our safety and enjoyment as aviators. Loss of Control In Flight (LOCI) has been on the rise in both commercial and private aviation. The unintended consequences of more conservative basic training, "safer" aircraft design, and more advanced avionics technology is the increased reliance on things other than pilot skills. By bringing back skill sets that have been lost to these unintended consequences, Pilot Makers advocates and teaches more advanced pilot skills to offset the increasing reliance on technology that has been eroding physical flying skills. At the end of the day exposure to and confidence in the entire flight envelope that aircraft are capable of is what both gives us more confidence and enjoyment in flying, as well as making us better, safer, and more knowledgeable aviators when the unexpected happens.
