No doubt about it, Stenger Air is a first-rate destination for getting Private Pilot instruction. Three highly experienced CFIs, Joe, Louanne and Felicia, deliver instruction in a relaxed atmosphere. The planes are meticulously well-maintained, of course. Lessons/rental costs are competitive and reasonable. The facility has plenty of work space and good AC. Essential student supplies, instructional materials, plotters, E6Bs etc. are available for sale on site. These folks are steady, far-more-than-competent, and wont steer you wrong. This last has been confirmed to me over and over by my own excellent experience, as well as in conversations with the pilots Ive met coming and going at Stenger Air or at other airports during practice. The older pilots with many 100s of flight hours always look you straight in the eye and say, Youre in the right place, or with obvious pride, Im Stenger-trained.
