    I had my discovery flight in September it was the best experience I ever had! Everyone was so kind and helpful.

    Purdue Aviation could benefit from more structured instructional management and modernized equipment. The current learning environment lacks a dedicated support system for students, and communication with leadership has been challenging and non-constructive. I hope to see improvements in professional standards and student-instructor engagement in the future.

    Instructors were not professional. Took me way too long to get a cert. Cancelled lessons on me without even telling me. No one would rebook or even tell me. One admitted to me he was only flying with me to just "get his hours". Their aviation maintenance is a joke. I sent a photo to an IA at a larger company and they were baffled at how bad it was. Can't do a 100 hr inspection in 3 hours. Never seen a flight school with such bad maintenance. Instructor charged me for ground school time without even giving me ground instruction.

    My partner and I earned our PPLs here and I can honestly say that this is a fantastic flight school. They have a ton of knowledgeable CFIs around to pair you with for instruction, and even more impressive, the maintenance crew keeps the fleet of old planes up and running - even with their intense maintenance and repair schedules. Geographically, West Lafayette is the perfect place to learn to fly. This isn't a huge airport - so you won't waste a ton of time in the pattern waiting for jets to come in. The landscape is flat - no worries about CFIT if visibility gets low. The weather is pretty predictable - usually good in the spring/summer/fall, and iffy in the winter. And there are a boatload of good places to land in the countryside if things go south.
