✈️ Welcome to the Heading Aviation Blog!

If you’re interested in learning to fly, starting flight training, or earning your Private Pilot License, you’re in the right place.

The world of aviation can feel exciting—but also overwhelming. Between FAA requirements, aircraft types, training costs, scheduling, and instructor guidance, it’s not always clear where to begin. Whether you’re a brand-new student pilot or someone simply exploring the idea of becoming a pilot, having reliable, straightforward information makes all the difference.

That’s why we created the Heading Aviation blog.

The blog officially launches March 2, with the first post going live at 6:30 AM MDT, giving you consistent, real-world insight into flight training and aviation.

At Heading Aviation, we provide personalized flight training and work closely with student pilots at every stage—from their very first introductory flight to checkride preparation and beyond. This blog is an extension of that mission: offering practical insight into aviation training, aircraft knowledge, safety practices, and the real-world experience of learning to fly.

Here, you’ll find articles covering topics such as:

  • How to start flight training

  • What it takes to earn a Private Pilot License

  • Flight training costs and time expectations

  • Instructor perspective and student progress

  • Aircraft operations and safety fundamentals

  • Aviation decision-making and long-term flying goals

Over time, this blog will grow to include broader aviation topics as well—advanced ratings, aviation lifestyle, and the bigger picture of what it means to be part of the aviation community.

We publish new articles twice a week—every Monday and Thursday—so whether you’re actively training, comparing flight schools, or simply aviation-curious, there’s always something new to explore.

Becoming a pilot is more than earning a certificate. It’s a process of growth, discipline, and decision-making. This blog exists to help you navigate that journey with clarity and confidence.

Welcome to Heading Aviation.

Let’s get started.
