What an awesome experience!! Our pilot, John, did a fantastic job showing us the airplane, teaching us some basics about flying, and then taking us on an amazing flight around Lexington. It was so much fun! This is a great opportunity for anyone that wants to learn more about flying or who just wants to sightsee from a couple of thousand feet in the air. Thank you to John for a great time!

Humans have long sought a way to fly, from Daedalus's wax wings to Leonardo's proto-helicopters to Benjamin Franklin's daily inhalation of helium. Conquer a fully realized method of aerial exploration with today's Groupon: for $300, you get 20 hours of ground training (a $500 value) and a Jeppesen private pilot manual (a $100 value) at NexGen Aviation (a $600 total value).

Having racked up more than 1,600 hours of flight instruction, NexGen Aviation co-owner and chief flight instructor Brandon Morton expertly leads cloud-splitting novices to confident gravity defiance with scenario-based flight training. Ground training is the first step to atmospheric dominance, readying landlubbers' minds for the private pilot written test and the Top Gun trivia oral test required for further airborne antics. During 20 classroom hours, instructors will discuss technical topics such as the certificates and documents required by the FAA and federal aviation regulations. Students will also explore the text of the Jeppesen private pilot manual, getting into the nitty-gritty of aerodynamics, weather preparedness, and cross-country flight planning before learning proper use of the "fasten seatbelt" sign.

Wonderful place to learn to fly. Everyone is very friendly and genuinely enthusiastic about aviation. They use Diamond DA40s as their training aircraft.
