STUDENT SPOTLIGHT

"I did my PPL training at Proteus. Amazing school with good people that stick with you for life. Happy to call them all my friends and will be continuing instrument here eventually. [...] More friendly, hands on and will guide you better through the process rather than just put you through a series of tests. If you’re in Santa Monica and want to learn to fly - go here.[...] Once you switch, you’ll never go back! This fleet is way more fun to fly."
