Ami Hendel and Thomas Newton founded the Hollywood Flight Training (HFT) with a mission to impart their passion for aviation to others. They have trained students from all over the world for over 10 years and have more than 8000 hours of flight time combined. Several of their students are currently flying at major airlines. ( See our success stories ). Flight training when conducted properly is both safe and fun. Their safety record is impeccable with no student injuries. Hollywood flight Training instructors are FAA certified. In addition to their required flight credentials, Ami Hendel has been provisionally selected to serve as an FAA designated pilot examiner. Their passing rate is excellent in the industry. Tom Newton has taught at some of the top flight schools in the country including Delta Connection Academy. Tom posses strong skills in flight instruction, coupled with prior airline experience, has given him an extensive knowledge of professional standardization training and safety. Our location is best suited for smaller general aviation aircraft and training operations versus the larger airports. Our fleet is currently comprised of C-172 November, Romeo and Sierra models plus a Duchess for multi engine and commercial training.

Instructors are selected based on their flying abilities, teaching skills and passion for flying. We prefer to use students we have trained to be Certified Flight Instructors in order to ensure they posses the skills, knowledge and experience we require to share with the students. Private aviation provides a freedom to explore the world or to build a foundation for a career in aviation. While HFT teaches to the highest standards and prepares all of the students as if they were all professional pilots, a lot of our students are also professionals from other careers who posses the desire to learn how to fly.
