Clear, Affordable Pricing and Flexible Aircraft & Simulator Rentals
Budget concerns and lack of rental availability often discourage new pilots from progressing in their training. How Elite Solves It: With competitive pricing and simple scheduling, our rental aircraft are available 24/7 for approved pilots and our Simulator is Open . Whether you’re looking for a one-day rental or a multi-day cross-country flight, Elite provides affordable options to help you stay in the air and build hours at your own pace.
High-Quality Aircraft and Equipment
New pilots often worry about the reliability and quality of the aircraft they’re training in, which can lead to a lack of confidence during lessons. How Elite Solves It: We maintain a fleet of well-equipped, high-quality aircraft like the Cessna 172 Skyhawk N2886Q, featuring Garmin 430W and ADS-B. All our rental aircraft are IFR-certified, thoroughly inspected, and maintained to the highest safety standards, ensuring you have peace of mind during every flight.
Comprehensive Instruction for Every Certification
Many flight schools offer limited training options, forcing pilots to change schools or instructors to get advanced certifications. How Elite Solves It: From Light Sport Pilot to Certified Flight Instructor ratings, we provide all the training you need under one roof. Whether you’re pursuing private pilot or instrument proficiency, our expert instructors will guide you through every step.

How Elite Solves It: Our instructors have extensive experience across a wide variety of aircraft and flight conditions. We offer individual attention, adapting lessons to your pace and skill level to ensure you gain confidence and competence as you advance. You’ll also have the option to train in your own aircraft, providing flexibility and comfort.
State-of-the-Art Flight Simulator
Flight time can be expensive, and new pilots want more practice at a lower cost before flying solo or advancing to more challenging maneuvers. How Elite Solves It: Our state-of-the-art flight simulator allows you to practice in a cost-effective, controlled environment, preparing you for real-life scenarios without the added expense of aircraft rental.
