Excellent flight school!
West Air Aviation is my second home. The staff are super nice. The flight instructors are very educated and deliver a very helpful & stress-free experience. I went into flight training not knowing what to expect but West Air Aviation made the experience almost natural for me. I really appreciate that. I'm half way done with my private pilots license. They make it easier to learn to fly than my own parents did while teaching me how to drive a car. I always feel safe because the instructors know what they're doing and have lots of experience.
My only complaint would be their failure to maintain up-to-date maintenance on their Cessna 172 trainers. They fly great and are wonderful airplanes. It's just the fact that they're not always flyable according to their maintenance records. I booked a training flight a couple months ago and showed up only to find out after getting in each individual airplane, that all of their trainer airplanes surpassed their 100 hour inspections... I had to cancel my flight and reschedule. I was bummed because I drive all the way from Henderson to do my training. A similar problem occurred today when the aircraft I scheduled for training surpassed its 100 hours. Therefore causing me to change aircraft during my preflight inspection.
Other than that small issue, their flight school is top notch. They're very knowledgeable and helpful about anything regarding Aviation. They will do whatever it takes to get you in the air!
West Air Aviation, in my opinion, has the most competitive prices than any other flight school in Las Vegas. If you're new to Aviation, start here.
