SAFETY-FOCUSED
Safety is at the core of everything we do. From day one, you’ll learn not just how to fly — but how to think like a safe and responsible pilot. I emphasize sound aeronautical decision-making, situational awareness, and real-world risk management. My priority as your CFI is to help you build safe habits that last a lifetime — so you can fly with confidence and always make it home to what matters most.
MENTORSHIP MENTALITY
At Hells Canyon Flight Instruction, I don’t only teach — I mentor. That means taking time to truly invest in your growth as a pilot and as a person. I offer guidance, accountability, and encouragement every step of the way. Whether you’re facing a challenge or celebrating a breakthrough, you’ll have an instructor who’s in your corner, helping you stay focused, confident, and prepared for whatever comes next in your aviation journey.
FLEXIBLE TRAINING TIMES
I understand busy schedules. Whether you’re working, in school or raising a family, I offer training slots that fit your lifestyle — including mornings, evenings, and weekends.
PERSONALIZED TRAINING
No two students are the same! I tailor every lesson to match your pace, strengths, and learning style — making training more efficient, and enjoyable.
OPTIMAL FLIGHT TRAINING LOCATION
Lewiston-Nez Perce County Airport is ideal for flight training! It’s a towered airport giving you real-world radio and traffic experience right from the start. With two runways, instrument approaches and a layout that supports both beginner and advanced training, you’ll gain the skills and confidence to fly anywhere. Plus, there are non towered airports close by so you’ll get practice in both environments during your training!
