Congratulations to David Lu on earning his Multi-Engine Instructor (MEI) certification! Throughout his training at our Myrtle Beach campus, David and Certificated Flight Instructor Jacob Petroski flew nearly 200 hours together. Jacob was there for David's very first lesson and his final check ride sign-off, guiding him through multiple ratings along the way.

Stories like this are a great reminder that flight training is about more than earning certificates. It's about the relationships, mentorship and trust built along the journey.

Congratulations, David! 🎉

When Charlotte Coulston was choosing where to train, LIFT Academy® stood out because she could see a clear path from student to instructor and, ultimately, to the flight deck.

Now a Multi-Engine Instructor at LIFT with more than 1,000 flight hours, Charlotte is well on her way to making that plan a reality.
