I went here in 2021 to work on my PPL, staff is very friendly and the environment feels like a family. Instructors are great and the maintenance on the planes are good as well. Highly recommended Joey and Adam as your CFI.

This is the absolute BEST place to take lessons and rent planes! I got my ppl there a few years ago and continue to rent from them all the time. The staff is super friendly and very organized. The planes all run very well and are well maintained also. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT bother going anywhere else but here! Interstate gets a 10 out of 10 from me and I really would encourage everyone interested in aviation to try them out! You won’t be sorry!

Definitely recommend taking a helicopter ride through this company . The pilot is absolutely the best from explaining the safety briefing to taking us on such a scenic route and pointing out all the landmarks along our way and telling us his own personal stories. Absolutely gorgeous, definitely will be flying here again

I'M ORIGINALLY FROM PLAINVILLE & WHEN MY PARENTS & I RESIDED IN SHERWOOD FOREST WE WERE ABLE TO WATCH THE TAKEOFF & LANDING ACTION FROM OUR KITCHEN & PATIO. IT WAS EVEN MORE FUN WATCHING IT FROM YOUR PAVED PARKING SPACES.
