Hear what our students have to say about us

  • "My CFI training was a very positive experience! Sean will tell you exactly what to expect and how to best prepare for, not only your check ride, but also how to effectively teach the information and skills to a student pilot. His goal is for you to succeed and that will be made clear to you on day 1. Feel confident that you have made a great decision toward achieving your aviation goals!"

    Jonathan Clark

  • "Unlike other CFI programs where you are treated like a paycheck, Sean actually wants to see you succeed in achieving your goals of becoming a CFI. Additionally, he teaches you not only the knowledge and skills you need to get your CFI, but also furthers your development to prepare you for the rest of your career in aviation."

    James Dowdy

  • "After completing my initial CFI course, I felt as if I was more than ready for my check-ride. Not only that, once I began instructing, I quickly realized how the course prepared me to instruct confidently."

    Destiny Rhoda

  • I attended the CFI academy for Magnolia and had a great experience. Magnolia has a very well structured and thought-out program with knowledgeable instructors. The owner Sean is also there for the students and helps each of them to match individual needs. I would recommend Magnolia if you are looking to build a career out of aviation or even to casually fly.

    Gavin Moncure

  • I became a Flight instructor at Magnolia CFI and they have a great program. They are great at scheduling and giving you the tools to pass and be a well prepared instructor. Special thanks to Jonathan and Cameron who are amazing instructors!

    Shantal BA

  • I had a terrific experience with Magnolia! The CFI journey has been long and hard but Magnolia was very organized and made the whole process seamless. Sean and Jeff are very knowledgeable and bring out their own personal experiences into the teaching. I left with both instructor ratings and the confidence to apply what I learned to my future students!

    Alexandro Paredes

  • Incredibly effective and worthwhile. They provide thorough and complete training for their CFI student and I can say from experience they are worth the time and money. Couldn’t have wanted a better place to make me a safe instructor and an overall better pilot!

    Braden Dahlke

  • If you’re looking for the best CFI/CFII program, THIS IS THE ONE! I worked it out with Sean and joined this program as I was working on my CSEL. I passed my CFI checkride not even a week after getting my commercial and was absolutely more than prepared. This school is super organized. You will be surrounded by a great group of people that feels like family by the end of it. This academy doesn’t just teach you how to pass the checkride, it teaches how to excel as a professional CFI and successfully progress in your aviation career.
