We are proud to offer two Cessna 172's. a Piper Warrior, for rental to our students. At Bird Dog Flight Services we place a large emphasis on only flying safe and well maintained airplanes. Our aircraft have been immaculately maintained and you will rarely see lower time and more well maintained flight school planes!
Both 172's are fully IFR certified and have an updated Garmin 375 avionics package. The Garmin 375 is a great happy medium between a full glass panel and full steam gauge panel so students can get the benefit of learning both steam gauges and how to use a high functioning GPS.
Our Piper Warrior is fully IFR certified with Garmin 530 WAAS Capability. All aircraft meet our high standards of maintenance and are exceptional training aircraft.
We are thrilled to announce the addition of a fully FAA certified Gleim Basic Aviation Training Device or 'BATD' simulator. The Gleim Virtual Cockpit BATD delivers the ultimate immersive experience with a global navigation database and more than 33,000 instrument procedures.
