Flight training for pilot, flight instructor certifications, and tailwheel endorsements in New York's Capital Region

I started my aviation career at a very young age in Upstate New York. I did my discovery flight on my 14th birthday and never looked back! After achieving my private pilot's certificate in high school I continued my education and flight training at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida. I am currently based in New York's Capital Region and specialize in providing quality flight instruction tailored to your needs. I offer training for private pilot, instrument rating, commercial pilot, flight instructor instrument certifications, and tailwheel endorsements. I also offer tutoring services for all flight training and checkride preparations

Want your tailwheel endorsement? I offer tailwheel endorsements for $75/hr in this 1947 Stinson 108-3. The aircraft is provided by Adirondack Legacy Aircraft for a rate of $150/hr.
Tailwheel endorsements take around 5-10 hours, the weather and pilot skill will determine this amount as need. You will be learning and demonstrating: taxiing, 2-point, 3-point takeoffs, stalls, s-turns, forward slips to landing, 3-point, wheel landings, and crosswind landings.
Pilots with a tailwheel endorsement have excellent stick and rudder skills, which enhance their aircraft control in all phases of flight. This is particularly crucial during landing, where anticipating the movements of the airplane is key.
Earning your tailwheel endorsement is some of the most fun flying you will ever do. From grass strips to forward slips, you're guaranteed to have a great time! Most backcountry flying experiences are in tailwheel aircraft.
