Patiently taught us the basics

My son and I went to Avia Aviation for our introductory flight. The instructors, Anna and Ryan, are both very friendly and knowledgeable. Today, Anna was our flight instructor, and she patiently taught us all the basics. If you are serious about taking flight lessons, I highly recommend Avia Aviation. They have a very good and safe fleet.
