What our riders tell us

Best 30 minutes of our entire vacation. Walter was patient, professional, and the views were unreal. We're already planning our return for foliage season.

— Sarah M., Saratoga Springs

My CFI training experience here has been outstanding. The R-44 is well maintained and the instruction is patient and thorough.

— Marc J., student pilot
