About this school

Pinnacle Aviation Academy is an FAA approved 141 school with flight test examining authority. We have been graduating professional pilots since 1997. We currently have over 80 of our graduates employed by SkyWest Airlines and many more with SouthWest Airlines, United Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Mesa Airlines, ExpressJet, AirTran Airways, Ameriflight, Corporate, Air Taxi (FAR 135) and more!

Whether you choose fast track full time training or part time training that will accommodate work and or school requirements, Pinnacle Aviation Academy has a Professional Pilot Program to meet your needs.

Pinnacle Aviation Academy has trained thousands of people to fly for fun, for business and for careers in aviation. With a Private Pilot Certificate, you may take passengers on day or night flights in visual conditions. The Instrument Rating expands your experience by permitting flight in clouds and instrument approaches to airports. The Multi-Engine Rating will allow you to fly both Single Engine and Multi-Engine aircraft.

You do not need to have perfect vision and super human capabilities to fly general aviation aircraft. A physical exam is required, but most people with correctible vision and reasonable health pass the exam with "flying colors".

General Aviation is a challenge and adventure for the entire family. We see an increasing number of Father/Sons, Mother/Daughters and Husband/Wife teams learning to fly.
Some pilots choose to purchase aircraft or buy into an aircraft partnership. Pinnacle Aviation Academy is a Cessna Pilot Center and can provide you with factory fresh Cessna Single Engine Aircraft. Many new pilots prefer to rent different types aircraft. Pinnacle Aviation Academy can once again meet your requirements! Whether your choice is a Cessna 172, Cessna 182, Piper Seminole and soon the light sport SkyCatcher, we have the aircraft on line and available for rent after completing your flight training. A short checkout is usually all that is needed for aircraft rental.

We are pleased to support groups such as "The 99's" and "Women in Aviation". More so even today, women are finding out how much fun it is to learn to fly. We are excited to have women representing Pinnacle Aviation Academy in our instructor staff and management team.
