Why PEA?

 

We would like to take this time to offer you some of the many reasons why Phoenix East Aviation, Inc. is a great place to get an aviation education.

 

Phoenix East Aviation (PEA), Inc. is an approved FAA Part 141 & 61 flight school that has self-examining authority. What this means to you is that not only does the FAA approve our training syllabus but they put their stamp of approval on PEA as a school. Additionally, our own employees give you the FAA flight exam here in the school. The FAA evaluates and reevaluates our employees to make sure our flight exams meet their standards. In the end, this saves you time and money. Additionally, we are one of the few schools in the United States to have special FAA approval on a Commercial "train to proficiency" course. Again, the FAA has given us their stamp of approval for this special course designed to save you time and money.

 

Our location in Daytona Beach means you can fly all year round. Our location on the airport gives a quick access to all runways, which means you get in the air faster to start your training. We also have 4 additional non-controlled airports, which surround Daytona Beach, which give you additional opportunities to supplement your training environment.
