OVERVIEW

Become part of a very small group of aviators, only 3 percent of US pilots have a seaplane rating! We offer the single-engine sea add-on for the private pilot, commercial pilot, and ATP certificates. You will fly a amphibious Aviat Husky equipped with Wipline 2100 floats, Aspen 1000 evolution with Synthetic Vision (SV), and a Garmin 430. With over a thousand lakes in Lake County, this is the perfect place to experience the adventures of seaplane flying and see the true meaning of Lake County!
