About
SpanaFlight Aviation is an FBO flight center located 30 minutes south of Seattle at the Pierce County Airport–Thun Field in Puyallup. This busy, full-service aviation center is a hub for area flight activity. SpanaFlight’s dedicated teachers introduce you to flying and walk you through all the steps necessary to become licensed.
The programs offered are flexible according to your schedule and goals. You’ll begin your training with comprehensive ground school classes where you learn the basics of flying a plane. As an authorized PSI/Lasergrade Testing Center, SpanaFlight instructors will make sure you’re prepared to pass the necessary FAA written exam, which you can take onsite.
While studying, you also take pre-solo training, mastering the in-air skills necessary to later fly solo. In addition to air time, you can practice real-world experiences in safety using cutting-edge simulator technology. According to the FAA, some simulator training hours count toward your license requirements.
SpanaFlight offers a $99 Discovery Flight, so you can check out how it feels to pilot a small plane before committing to flight school. The friendly instructors connect you with Flight Training Finance if you need financial aid to get started. SpanaFlight also has offices in Auburn and in Olympia for your convenience.
