Us on Let's Fly San Diego.com Us on Cox website Us on Nethere website
This will help viewers of the old site find the new one: webpages.cwia.com/~lrn2fly has moved to http://LetsFlySanDiego.com

I have created this website to tell viewers all about pilot training, flight instruction, and opportunities to learn to fly, either through a pilot school or independent instruction in the San Diego, California area. It is for viewers seeking flying lessons and flying schools, those who want to find flight training information for obtaining a pilot license, and for those who are already pilots.

These pages will also provide pilots with information about various flying clubs and San Diego flight training sources, as well as providing information about the steps and requirements associated with becoming a pilot.
