Soar Higher With SkyWings

SkyWings Aviation Provides Comprehensive Pilot Training

Founded in 2024, SkyWings Aviation was established to meet the need for a more modern, scenario-driven approach to flight training in North Georgia. With a growing pilot shortage and limited access to personalized instruction, we set out to offer a higher standard of training—rooted in real-world flying, not just textbook procedures. Our location provides an ideal learning environment, with access to diverse airspace, terrain, and weather conditions that prepare students for the challenges of real-world aviation.

SkyWings Aviation is a family founded business who saw the gaps in traditional training—large schools that felt impersonal, high prices, and a lack of mentorship. We set out to build something better: a school where students are known by name, where instructors are mentors, and where every flight lesson is built around real-world scenarios that develop confident, capable aviators.

It’s rare to get more than what you pay for these days. But that’s what I get every time I fly with SkyWings Aviation. Safe and easy to fly aircraft. Fun and knowledgeable instructors. Great pricing. Perfect combination to make getting your PPL a breeze. Highly recommended.

SkyWings Aviation is a best-in-class flight school located centrally out of KGVL in Northeast Georgia. The instructors are top notch, and the planes are well-maintained. I have never had an issue being able to book one, which is really important to me since I work full-time and try to fly in my free time.

I love the friendly, welcoming, and encouraging familial environment where I am not afraid to ask aviation-related questions. I know I will always get a prompt, in-depth response and I have never felt like I am just another number or truly “flying solo”.

SkyWings genuinely cares about seeing their students succeed and for that reason, I drive over an hour each way to fly with them. I recommend them to every one of my friends who are interested in aviation and becoming a pilot.
