Phoenix East Aviation was featured on EMPOWERED hosted by MEG RYAN!

Phoenix East Aviation appeared in the most recent episode of Empowered. There has been a long standing idea that becoming a pilot is an unattainable goal, and for many, it seems like a dream. However PEA’s feature on the show delved deeper into how that is no longer the case, and how becoming a professional pilot now more than ever, is important to help close the pilot shortage gap that is occurring.

“Zero to Hero” is a term often used to describe the training at PEA. An aspiring pilot can go from having absolutely no flying experience, to being ready to take on the skies confidently. Beyond just teaching them how to fly, PEA prepares their students for a successful career as a pilot, “PEA has been training pilots for 50 years and is well-established in the aviation industry,” said CEO Kristoffer Johnson.

“A career in aviation is accessible for everyone with the right training and determination as the demand for air travel is increasing, the demand for pilots soars.”

Phoenix East Aviation was featured on Advancements with Ted Danson!

For over five decades, Phoenix East Aviation has been at the forefront of pilot training, successfully guiding thousands of individuals toward becoming accomplished aviators. Throughout this extensive journey, our institution has played a pivotal role in observing and adapting to the transformative advancements in aviation technology. These technological innovations have significantly enhanced the training programs at Phoenix East Aviation, contributing to the alleviation of the ongoing pilot shortage that the aviation industry is grappling with.

Being featured on Advancements with Ted Danson presents a unique and unparalleled opportunity to spotlight these two critical aspects-our longstanding commitment to pilot training excellence and the positive impact of technology on addressing the industry-wide pilot shortage. Advancements, as an esteemed and award-winning educational program, serves as an ideal platform to bring attention to these vital matters, shedding light on the essential issues and contemporary topics shaping the aviation landscape and society at large.

From Wisconsin to the flight deck ✈️

Lainie’s journey at Phoenix East Aviation has been built one rating at a time, from Instrument to passing her CFI checkride, and now pushing toward what’s next.
