Trident Aircraft was founded in 2006 by John Galdieri in an effort to make aircraft rental and instruction affordable to Midshipmen from the Naval Academy and local pilots. John, a corporate pilot, owned a Piper Cherokee that he used to commute to his corporate base in New Jersey. He started by instructing several local students in his own aircraft. His Piper eventually became so busy that he was unable to use it for his personal travel. He purchased a Cessna 150, rented a closet-size office and started what is today the most active flight school in Maryland.
The Trident business plan has not changed. We still offer very well maintained, well- equipped aircraft at prices that blow away the competition. By the end of the first year, the fleet increased to 3 aircraft including a Piper Arrow and a Cessna 172. As each aircrafts schedule becomes saturated, another aircraft is added. Today the rental and instruction fleet between our 2 locations includes 19 aircraft ranging from Cessna to Cirrus, Twin Engine Duchess\ and even an aerobatic tail wheel Super Decathlon.
Trident is proud of its diverse fleet and capability to train pilots from Sport Pilot through Airline Transport Pilot. We teach tail wheel transitions and Basic Aerobatics in our Super Decathlon which rents for a very competitive price and can be rented for solo operations with 10 hours of training or previous tail wheel experience. Technically Advanced Aircraft training is available in a G1000 Cessna 172, G1000 Cessna 182 as well as a Cirrus Perspective SR20. Trident is a Cirrus Authorized Training Center.
The highlight of Trident Aircraft is the staff. Trident's staff is an incredibly energetic group of motivated CFI's. With a staff of more than 10 full-time Flight Instructors including Instrument Instructors, Cirrus Certified Instructors, tail wheel instructors and Multi-Engine Instructors, we have someone who can help you meet your aviation goals. Whether your goal is to earn your Private Pilot's License in a Cessna 152, have some fun flying loops in a Super Decathlon, earn your ATP or even blast into the flight levels for the first time, Trident has something for you. Our incredibly friendly, professional staff and low prices make flying fun and affordable. based at the very scenic Bay Bridge Airport on Maryland's Eastern Shore, it is worth a visit next time you are in town.
