Ideal Aviation was great! They were a part of a special Aviation Event for 5-12th grade educators led by the Illinois Math & Science Academy held at the St. Louis Downtown Airport in Cahokia, IL. Ideal flight instructors took educators on flights and provided them with a first hand learning experience. Instructors were very professional and knowledgeable. Ideal Aviation leadership was willing to be flexible with plans to meet the needs of participants.
Ideal Avaition has been an opportune place to start my Avaition experience. They have friendly staff and are very communicative with your needs. They allow you to train at your own pace and doesn’t hurt that they have some great CFI(I)’s that are eager to get you your wings. Hope to keep seeing their fleet grow soon!
My instructor Will is probably the best fit I could have asked for in any flight instructor. He always knows when to take over and when I am feeling stressed during flight and makes flying feel normal even when in high stress situations. As well as Mary and Kim always help get my payments through at anytime I need it. Overall I have had a great experience with Ideal since starting my Private course.
I have been a student at this flight school for several months now. It has been a great experience from the very first phone call that I made to inquire about the program to now. The staff at the front desk has been amazing. Every question via phone call or email to them was immediately responded to. I was matched to a CFI who has been very accommodating. He continually makes himself available to adapt to my work schedule. He has always been very responsive to my communications. Best of all he is patient and challenge... read more
