“I enjoy everything that Skyborne has to offer. The balance between living your passion for flying and being around wonderful people is incredible. I would call it a family of sorts. If I had to choose between all the places in the world to do my training, it would be Skyborne again and again and as soon as possible.”
“Skyborne treats everyone professionally, and I’ve been made to feel part of the family. Skyborne is more than an organization that you can depend and lean on, they positively push you to thrive and be excellent in everything you set out to achieve.”
“What impresses me most about Skyborne is their drive to be the best flight school, and how they actively take steps to achieve it. Since I joined, they have invested in new flight simulators and completely renovated the admin building here on campus.”
“The path to becoming a pilot with Skyborne is well laid out. They focus on the detail and approach everything with such professionalism.”
“The professionalism here is top notch and so is the curriculum. I am proud to say I am a student at Skyborne. My journey so far has been awesome.”
"Skyborne is full of passionate, high quality, caring individuals. I chose Skyborne because it was personal, providing exceptional quality and a high standard of training. For those of you thinking of training at Skyborne, I couldn’t recommend it enough. I have loved every single moment of my time here and have certainly made a lot of friends for life."
"Walking into Skyborne HQ every morning makes me proud to be training here. The balance between professional and family feel is important and Skyborne has got it just right. Ground school was a brutal part of training but the immense support, knowledge and jokes from the TKIs are what motivated me through the exams. My five months in Vero Beach were arguably the best time of my life. There was nothing better than flying with your mates in the morning, followed by exploring the state or relaxing by the pool. I can safely say that training at Skyborne was the best decision."
“I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Skyborne. All the team were so supportive from day one, all the way through to securing my first airline job.
The instructors were so helpful and the airline-focused training has really helped me in my initial training in the airline industry.”
“From meeting the Skyborne team at industry events, I knew that this was where I wanted to complete my commercial flight training. The DA-42 aircraft that I trained on were awesome and the instructor team were so experienced in this area. The final, all-important element was finding a job. When I secured an assessment with Eastern Airways, the Skyborne team remained on hand throughout the process with interview and simulator assessment preparation. Now that my type rating and base training are complete, I can say that all the effort has been worth it.”
“The continuous support system in place at Skyborne, from the management and instructors, to fellow students and staff, as well as the welcoming Vero Beach location has made my training a success with ease. There is a loving feel of being at home even when 7,000 miles away from my mother country.”
“I researched flight schools and chose Skyborne because of the professional environment. The flight line, the condition of the airplanes and the great maintenance team made it an easy decision for me.”
“Skyborne’s maintenance is top tier, the environment here is that of a family, the training gets you ready for the airlines and let's not forget the beach. You are minutes away from one of the most laid-back beautiful beaches in Florida.”
“Skyborne offers the unique experience of pairing passionate and knowledgeable instructors with an unmatched maintenance department, all set in a location that inspires us to perform our best everyday. Studying and working here over the past several years has been an experience I’ll proudly carry with me for the rest of my life.”
“Skyborne has given me a great opportunity to expand my skill set. This has allowed me to carry out instruction from the amazing purpose built facilities here in the UK as well as travel to our US site in Vero to standardise the instructors out there. Being part of an instructor team with such a wealth of experience form such varied backgrounds of the aviation industry is truly awesome.”
“The most enjoyable part of teaching ATPL theory at Skyborne is the trainees. I love seeing them flourish and mature throughout the modules. Being part of their journey towards being a commercial pilot is a real honour. Skyborne is such a supportive and nurturing environment, not only for the trainees but also for staff. It feels like one big family working together to reach a common goal. Having worked for several different ATO’s, Skyborne is fresh and different.”
“What I enjoy about working at Skyborne is the level of industry leading Instructors I have the pleasure of working with, the bespoke LMS we use and that our trainees have access to the best courseware material available whilst benefitting from training at the same location as our ME flight training, meaning they have access to the aircraft, DA-42 and 737 max simulators. These features give our trainees the absolute best start to their careers in aviation.”
"I enjoy my role at Skyborne as it is an innovative organisation that allows me to bring my previous experience to the ATO environment and embrace airline methodology. We strive to prepare trainees for the realities of airline operations by adopting modern industry ideas."

With this partnership, we will be able to continue our growth in the charter industry with First Officers who are well-prepared for the flight deck.”
“We are very pleased to be working with Skyborne Airline Academy, which is recognized as being in the top three flight schools in the United States. To continue to achieve Avelo’s mission of inspiring travel and making air travel easy and affordable, we need the very best pilots.
