Testimonials
Anil Menon - RV-6A owner, physician, engineer, astronaut
“Bryan has an RV8 that is very well equipped for transition training and he has been flying it for decades. He is calm and competent and inspires confidence in his students. I had no RV experience and very little tail wheel experience and Bryan quickly prepared me for transition into my RV4. Highly recommended.”
Jeff Bertsch - RV-4 & Bonanza owner, engineer, rocket scientist
“Bryan is an exceptional flight instructor and an invaluable resource for new RV owners and pilots. He provided us with transition training when we purchased our RV-4, and he continues to support us as we operate and maintain this remarkable aircraft.
I appreciate his calm, intentional approach to flight training. He listens carefully to your questions and responds in a way that aligns with your experience and understanding. With nearly 20 years of flying both professionally and recreationally, I've worked with many instructors—Bryan stands out among them.
His extensive experience with Van’s RV aircraft gives him a well-informed perspective grounded in real-world knowledge.
