Platinum Aviation is a great place to learn how to fly and rent aircraft.
Platinum Aviation made it possible for me to get my Private Pilot Certificate in high school. Its super convenient, pay as you go, go at your own pace, pick your plane and instructor, and more great scheduling conveniences. Since they have expanded their fleet and number of instructors, the schedule isnt as hard to get in as it used to be. Heyden Hoyt was my first instructor and he was fantastic. I wish all instructors could be that helpful, kind, energetic, and enthusiastic. Jaron was my second instructor, and hes super cool and very knowledgeable as is everyone here. From a rental perspective, theyve tightened down on aircraft security and pilot preparation which is more hoops to jump through, but if it leads to a safer outcome of flight, Im all for it. Thanks Platinum!
Kind and efficient. Very safe and happy to help
Super nice folks but 2 years ago I had rented a Katana DA20-C1 3 times within the span of a few days/weeks. I was excited because I was going to take my cousin out who also loves aviation. Unfortunately the first two times I rented the Katanas the oil temperature would peak out during taxi and even after take off it would remain high. It was early morning so nobody was ever there to help address the issue. The third time I tried to fly the prop wouldnt even turn over. I came up to a nice couple still by the hanger sitting in the open cockpit and asked about their flight... They hadnt even taken off yet and it was my time to fly the aircraft. I got it all prepped knowing Id be running into the same issue and low and behold the prop failed to turn over. To say the least it was a very poor experience as a renter. Nice fellows there but apparently awful maintenance.
Platinum Aviation is a really good place to learn to fly. They place an emphasis on safety which is an important aspect of flying and being a safe pilot. The aircraft are well maintained and the mechanics are easy to talk to if you have questions or concerns. Everyone is professional and pretty friendly and are willing to answer your questions or help you find an answer if they dont know.
Friendly staff with a flexible schedule. Locations in Spanish Fork and South Jordan. Great place to learn to fly.
Great place to learn and experience what it is like to become a pilot. A excellent flight and ground school with low rates.
Awesome! Thanks Benjamin Butler for the flight instruction!
It had been a number of years since I was able to fly last and was able to recently complete a flight review with Jaron at Platinum Aviation who made the experience very pleasant. All staff seemed cool and professional. The environment was clean - neat little flight school. Only flew the Aarow IV so cant comment on the condition for the rest of the fleet, but it was in good condition as expected.Got checked out as a renter and will be returning frequently!
I booked a test flight for my sons 13th birthday and couldnt have been happier!! Brady was amazing and helpful and gave my son the best experience! Thanks Platinum Aviation
