From Our Students Here is what they are saying about our courses

I sampled many other ground school courses which focused on test passing rather than knowledge acquisition. While these left me capable of passing the test, I didn't really feel confident in some of the topics because I was memorizing answers rather than understanding the sometimes complex truth behind various regulations, tasks and training. Greg thoroughly explains every topic, even past private pilot standards, in order to make sure you can understand why. I feel much more confident knowing how to think about and derive answers rather than memorizing steps in order to simply pass a test.

Greg and Pilot Institue is the best! I scored 97% in the PPL and 98% in the IRA knowledge tests! His method of delivery and the course content is amazing. I was a complete novice with no aviation specific knowledge, but his simple explanations made it possible for me to understand the intricacies in great detail!

Greg Reverdiau

Certified Flight Instructor, University Professor, Former Flight School President

Hi, I'm Greg or Professor R as my students call me.


I have been an aviation professional since the early 2000s. I currently hold the following FAA certificates: Certified Flight Instructor (Instrument), Commercial Pilot (for single and multi engine), and UAS Remote Pilot.


I have worked for two of the biggest aeronautical universities in the country (managing flight training programs of up to 500 students and 50 aircraft) and in teaching roles as an adjunct professor. I was also the President of a Part 141 Flight School with 25 employees, 14 aircraft, and 100 students.


I am passionate about making aviation more accessible and easier to learn. I now concentrate on educating the next generation of manned and unmanned pilots.


I hold a Bachelor's degree in Aeronautical Science and a Masters Degree in Aviation Human Factors, both from the Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne, FL.


When I am not teaching, you can find me running in the beautiful mountains surrounding Prescott, AZ.

FAQ Have questions? Get the answers below. You can also contact us.

What is an Instrument Rating?

An Instrument Rating gives pilots additional privileges and allows them to fly in suboptimal weather. Having an Instrument Rating can make you a better and safer pilot even if you don't fly into rough conditions.

What is a ground school?

A ground school like us prepares you for the FAA Written Exam. Our courses teach you the theory you need to pass the exam. You will also need a local flight school to provide you with training in the aircraft.
