Yes, we offer Cirrus aircraft rental as well as instruction. All pilots must meet Cirrus transition, Nassau Flyers membership, and recency requirements

Absolutely. Some of the most valuable experience is gained while flying on actual missions such as business or personal trips. The FAA also requires trips of 50 miles or more when working towards certain certificate ratings. Nassau Flyers can pair you with an instructor and handle the instructor’s lodging and travel needs in order to provide flight instruction on all or just some parts of the trip.

No. We do not offer charter services. However, Nassau Flyers provides aircraft management services and pilot services to businesses and individuals who own airplanes. We have programs that help first-time aircraft owners navigate aircraft ownership in turn-key ways and assist tenured owners and business flight departments with their operations. If you own your own aircraft, Nassau Flyers is a critical partner in enhancing your business aviation operations or aviation lifestyle.

If you do not own your own aircraft and the flight is not for the purposes of flight instruction, we’d be happy to discuss other options.

While flying is not cheap, the level of equipment, instructors, and infrastructure we provide is not a discount service.  We refuse to jeopardize pilot safety and proficiency.  Our mission is to provide a high-performing alternative to the typical flight school experience, and we invest heavily in top-notch aircraft, customer experience, and support.

A discovery flight is designed to introduce you to flight training or to give you a perspective on how Nassau Flyers and training in a Cirrus is a unique experience compared to typical flight school offerings. Our discovery flights start from $399. Learn more here.

The FAA minimum flight time is 40 hours. However, at Nassau Flyers, we emphasize proficiency and producing the best and safest pilots on the field. Training in New York’s airspace is challenging but extremely rewarding. If you can learn to fly here, you will have an unparalleled level of comfort flying just about anywhere.

The parachute is just one component in a system of components that makes the Cirrus one of the safest general aviation airplanes around. Misconceptions about the parachute, such as the airplane being irrecoverable from a spin, are incorrect. Most fatal spins occur under 1,000 feet AGL, and accident data suggest no pilot, regardless of experience, and no other airplane has an option if a spin occurs at that altitude. Cirrus is the first airplane to provide an option for such a scenario and it has saved hundreds of lives.

Electronic stability protection, airbags, infrared camera, onboard weather and traffic are just a few other systems that are usually only found on Jets which make the Cirrus an extremely safe airplane to fly compared to legacy airplanes. Here are a few other reasons why learning to fly and flying a Cirrus is one of the best decisions you can make.

We are continually audited and monitored by Cirrus Aircraft to ensure we maintain the highest standards in the nation.  Our Platinum status is an accreditation only a handful of Cirrus Training Centers and service centers across the nation have.
