Super cool experience! Harrison our pilot and all the staff were incredibly kind, enthusiastic, and professional. Highly (no pun intended) recommended.

I took an intro flight a few years ago with Matt and ever since, I was hooked! I took an hour tour with Heather around the Hudson Valley and now I am nearing completion of my private pilots certificate. I've had so much fun along the way. I have dealt / flown with Matt, Heather, Dave, and Adam and they are all extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Its truly an honor to fly with some of the most skilled pilots around! Learning to fly with Independent has been the best decision I've ever made. I also got a chance to fly around NYC at night with my wife, HOW COOL!

Thank you Jesse For giving my son his first flight instruction, he is in love with it and we are going to stick with it and you were amazing with a young student. I wish I could give you 10 stars. You are also a very polite young man as well. Great job.🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

Update dec 2024: looking back now at 4+ years with independent helicopters, taking every step from my intro flight, through privat pilot, instrument rating, commercial pilot and CFI certificate at this outstanding flight school - its really nice to look back, and also look into the future towards a CFII and whatever comes next. Independent Helicopters now has 2 DPE`s in house, so waiting times for check rides are mostly within a month. I know friends from the fixed wing world that waited months for a check ride. So overall, it has been an exiting and happy journey with Independent, and the journey will go on. ------- Very professional team of CFII`s, Independent operates 9 helicopters and keeps them in perfect shape for safe education. Ground education can be accomplished with an in house designed ground school, which I found very helpful during exam preparation. The kind of preparing students for the written FAA PPL test led to a 97% result on my side, thanks to the independent team competence.
