As a student pilot I always look for different explanations of how to perform certain maneuvers and understand concepts. I have great instructors and Fly8MA has helped augment and enhance my practical training when i can't make it into the air due to weather or scheduling. Like they always say in their video signoffs "if you can't fly every day then fly8MA."read more

fly8MA goes above and beyond to provide aviation enthusiasts with not just the bare minimum to pass the exams, but a solid understanding of aviation, and the learning process. I have experienced first-hand what it's like to scrape through a licensing process (many years ago in motorcycling), and the potential negative repercussions of that process, and unfortunately I get the distinct impression that this happens too often in many industries, including aviation. For this reason, I am particularly thrilled that John's course goes the extra mile to encourage budding pilots to take the extra time to really understand their craft. For example, breaking landing practice into both an approach phase and a high-speed taxi component, giving greater aircraft control skill and more practice time. Or another example, the in-depth videos to explain the workings of the avionics instrumentation, so you're more likely to be able to diagnose failure modes in-the-air. My only regret is that I haven't found a free Australian online ground school yet. Fortunately, a lot of the information is standardised, or carries across by way of physics!read more

Fly8ma took me from Zero to Hero, I came in with absolutely no aviation knowledge and in a few weeks I finished Private Pilot ground school and started flying. The lessons are perfect. You go over each lesson topic, then watch entertaining but information packed videos that explain exactly what you just learned. Jon and the other CFIs are always there to answer all the questions I've had with quick responses. I'm excited to use Fly8ma for all my future ratings.read more

Did my ground school on line with Fly8MA The videos and quizzes were taught exactly what you need to learn If you had a question post it and Jon got right back too you along with the pilot community I was lucky enough to do my flight training at Venice which is the airport most of the instructional videos were filmed and I flew the Cherokee 9907W that most were filmed in not that it mattered but it was nice to be flying the exact plane they were Great school good people if I ran into Jon on the field he spent as much time as as needed to answer any questions I had and to tell stories of his 1st hand experiences while flying Jon wasn’t my CFI I Just was a member of his online school I had a CFI that was actually trained by Jon and everyone treated me great and helped in anyway they could FLY8MA was a great online course and Sarasota Aero Club Shane was a great instruction all good guysread more

I never have personally meet Jon but I'd love to some day! His YouTube videos are amazing. When I was doing my ground School and came up against something I didn't understand I'd always go to fly8ma.com and watch a video about it. Then I'd understand! Hes a great teacher! Thanks Jon!read more

While getting my PPL, I came across Jon’s videos on YouTube channel. By far the best information you can get! Prior to my checkride, I watched the checkride portion to answer some questions I had, of what the process would be like. That’s the cool part of his channel is all the different parts of aviation he hits on. You can tell the experience he has for sure!read more

Love the videos and the explanations! Much better to learn WHY and HOW! Jon comes across in a nice and welcoming way. Even has post edit corrections added to vids. I like seeing that EVERYONE makes mistakes and it is not a perfect vid or audio every time. It feels much more relatable.read more

Jon is an awesome pilot and instructor! I flew with him back when he was an airline pilot. He's the same in his videos as he is in person: fun, personable, big personality, and full of information. He's so easy going and friendly that you're not intimidated to ask him questions about anything! I love watching his videos to gain information and see what cool adventures he's up to. So excited for him and all of his future endeavors and flying adventures! Wish he'd open a flight school in NC so I could attend! He's the kind of instructor you want because he's qualified & informative but he's easy going and will treat you like a friend!read more
