Hello, I would like to introduce myself as the founder of Fly There, LLC  at Chicago Executive Airport (PWK).   I’ve been involved in aviation since the age of 13, and am excited to share any experiences that may prove valuable when evaluating your options for choosing the correct flight school.  I have experience and qualifications in a wide range of aircraft which include but are not limited to the Cirrus SR 20 and 22 (T), Bonanza, Decathlon, Piper Mirage/Matrix/Meridian, Cessna 310 & 421, Pilatus PC-12/NG, TBM and a type rating in the EA-50 Eclipse Jet.  In addition I have experience using Garmin 430/530W’s, 650/750’s, Avidyne EX 500 and 5000, Garmin G500/G600 and G1000, Aspen EFD 1000 as well as various autopilots.

As a career flight instructor, it is my goal to provide you with the proper information when the time is right.  I look forward for the opportunity to meet with you and discuss our flight school and the benefits associated with us.  I am dedicated and proud to provide the best I can offer in a Flight School/Aircraft Rental & Management facility, and I am positive that we have what you are looking for.
