Bay Area Flying Club

What a great experience. We did the Discovery Flight premium package and my boyfriend got to fly the plane. We both truly enjoyed ourselves. Our instructor Jesse made it fun and enjoyable as well. This is a must do. You won't be disappointed.

I have been with Bay Area Flying Club for four months now. I have progressed from zero hours to taking my test for my Private Pilot License within these four months (around 55-60 hours)! Your speed of progress comes down to your time and financial availability, however, Bay Area Flying Club has a strong fleet and a good number of instructors. My first week I went in and I stated my intentions for flying and I was paired with an excellent instructor who fitted my learning style. The instructors have been incredibly helpful. When my primary Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) was busy then I was able to proceed with multiple others for a specific lesson.

Overall, for being such a new flight school at Livermore airport, I am impressed with the structure that has already been established and I look forward to furthering my flight experience with them.

An awesome experience!
The perfect recipe started with a great deal of attention-to-detail by their customer service.
Katie Hartford helped me setup the discovery flight, with a very prompt and courteous responses, and accommodated my requests. The pilot ‘Logan’ is also an exceptionally good communicator for the first timers. I am sure he will be just as great for any experienced flyers. Logan gave my 6 yo a great deal of attention before and during flight, and made him super comfortable and fun. There is no doubt that the young man will look forward to a career in flying one day.

Katie and Logan well exceeded my expectations — quite a compliment from a high expectation customer. :) We achieved the goal to satisfy the curiosity of my son, and he had a better time than I really expected. If we are in the area long enough that he is at the age to take professional flying lessons, we will be back at the American Flying School / Bay Area Flying Club, Livermore CA. Until then, I’m sure we will experience this again.
Thanks Katie and Logan!

I was excited to hear about Bay Area Flying Club opening in Northern CA! I have flown out of American Flight School’s 3 locations in Colorado. In Colorado, they have the largest and most diverse fleet of aircraft around. I expect them to do the same in California. You will find everthing from a basic fun Cessna 152 to a high performance travel aircraft such as the Cirrus SR22 and many in between. The aircraft are very well maintained and the instructors are top notch. I hope to travel to Northern California frequently and look forward to renting in Livermore.
