Great news for aspiring pilots! ✈️
We're excited to welcome Edly as another financing option for our flight training students!
Edly offers income-based repayment (IBR) loans — meaning your payments can grow with your income. Pay less when you're just starting out, and more as your earnings increase over time. This option helps to soften one of the biggest barriers to getting started.
We're committed to offering a variety of financing paths to those who qualify so more students can find what works for them!

Congratulations to LaMon Walker on earning his Certified Flight Instructor Instrument rating. 🎉
As a CFII, LaMon can now teach individuals how to fly in instrument meteorological conditions which means navigating using cockpit instruments alone without relying on outside visual references. It's a meaningful milestone that expands both what he can teach and those who he can help progress in their flight training.

Behind every safe flight is a team that never stops working. 🔧
Did you know? 💭 Today we celebrate , and we couldn't let it pass without talking about some members of our incredible Aviation Maintenance team: Steve O'Brien, Director of Aircraft Maintenance, Austin Ondarza, A&P Technician, and Luis Santiago, A&P Technician — who show up every day with the kind of dedication that doesn't ask for recognition, but absolutely deserves it.
From our Cessna 172s to our Piper Archers, they help keep the aircraft in our fleet airworthy and ready to fly; so that when our students take to the sky, they do it on aircraft that have been meticulously cared for. We're grateful to have them. 🎉
From everyone at Spartan Flight Academy we wish you all a Happy !!
