Luke:

 

 

I am certainly an enthusiast of PEA and the programs that they offer having personally gone through the Pro III program and instructed there full time for 3 years. My training with PEA started with my instrument rating in September of 2003. Upon completion of my certificates and ratings in 2005 I started employment as a full time flight instructor with PEA. My tenure at PEA allowed me to progress from line instructor to check airman and eventually as a charter pilot with the Trans Global division of PEA. When I resigned in 2008 it was because PEA had enabled me to take the next step in my professional career. I accepted a position on a CE-550/CE-560 (Picture1) with Gama Aviation based in my hometown area of Binghamton, NY. Gama has provided me great opportunity upgrading me to PIC in 2010 and more recently to a new account with the company on a CE-750. I look forward to hearing more success stories from PEA alumni and wish the best for PEA in the years ahead.
