Message from the President:
Here
at Skys Aircraft we view aviation as a way of life; A way that excites our
world. We are dedicated to helping others to learn and grow in
aviation. It does not matter if you only wish to fly as a hobby or pursue
a career we can make it happen for you here. Learning the discipline
required to earn your wings builds maturity at any age. Pilots are adults
in every way. Our customers and Aero Club members become part of the
Skys' Family. General Aviation is a small community of very special
people. Those who learn and embrace the values required will soon be
recognized and become known. A pilot's license is a ticket to an exciting
and satisfying lifestyle. For almost ten years Skys has made dreams come
true. We have the seasoned instructors, the safe aircraft, the testing
center and the plan to help you go up there - if you dare!
