We are honored to be the cover feature in the February Turbine edition of AOPA’s PILOT magazine.
Featured for a legacy built over decades of dedicated Kodiak instruction, our program reflects a depth of experience that has helped shape generations of confident, safety-minded Kodiak pilots.
As the original trainers for the Kodiak, we take pride in our unmatched track record of developing proficient pilots at our Spokane, WA facility and throughout the backcountry of Idaho and Montana.
Parkwater prepares pilots for the places the Kodiak was built to reach.
