Hello, I'm Ian.

With over a decade of professional aviation experience across corporate​,​ charter​,​ and airline operations​,​ I bring a structured yet approachable style to flight instruction. As a Captain​,​ Instructor-Evaluator​,​ Curriculum Developer​,​ and former Beechcraft Pilot Proficiency Program (BPPP) instructor​,​ I combine real-world experience with effective teaching tailored to each pilot’s goals and skill level. I enjoy working with both career-oriented pilots and hobbyists—whether it’s refining instrument technique​,​ mastering advanced avionics​,​ or building confidence in cross-country flying. My instruction emphasizes safety​,​ judgment​,​ and a deep understanding of the “why” behind every maneuver. Beyond instruction​,​ I’m also involved in aircraft sales and management​,​ helping owners navigate acquisition​,​ ownership​,​ and operational efficiency with confidence. My goal is to support every aviator—whether you’re pursuing a career or simply flying for the joy of it—in developing lasting proficiency and a genuine love for aviation.
