About Westwind School of Aeronautics Westwind has been training pilots since 1985. With our fleet of 25 new

aircraft and flight simulators (including a Boeing 737-800), our

experienced Flight Instructors, and our modern facilities, you can be

assured of receiving the highest quality of Professional Flight

Instruction while you are attending school here.

The training Westwind

School of Aeronautics

provides is recognized

by airlines from around

the world. Many of

our graduates are

enjoying successful

careers flying airliners

and corporate jets as a

result of the excellent training received at Westwind School of

Aeronautics.

While some schools will train you to achieve the minimum training

necessary to obtain your license, Westwind School of Aeronautics

trains you to be the safest, most proficient pilot you can be, which gives

you a better opportunity for a successful career.

Our Training Airport and Area

Westwind School of Aeronautics is ideally

located at Deer Valley Airport (KDVT) in

Phoenix, Arizona. The volume of local air

traffic and superb year-round weather make

the Phoenix valley an excellent location for

flight training. Phoenix is one of the few

locations in the United States where you can

fly almost every day of the year.

While Westwind School of Aeronautics is based in the Phoenix

Metropolitan Area, students conduct

operations throughout the entire

southwestern United States. Numerous

training activities are flown in Southern

California, where students gain vital

experience operating in instrument

meteorological conditions.

The diverse nature of the terrain found in the Southwestern United

States enables students to experience a wide variety of flight

conditions; coastal flying, mountain flying, instrument meteorological

conditions, high density altitude - it's all part of the Westwind

experience.

Deer Valley Airport is controlled and radar equipped. The airport has

several published instrument approaches and is operational 24 hours a

day. Deer Valley Airport has two parallel runways, minimizing

departure and arrival delays often found at many other airports.

More than a dozen other airports are available for student training

within 35 miles of Deer Valley Airport, including Phoenix Sky Harbor

International Airport.

Our Training Airport and Area continued

Deer Valley Airport is capable of accommodating all segments of civil

aviation except commercial passenger service. The Airport offers a complete

range of services including fueling, avionics repair, maintenance, parts,

flight training, new and used aircraft sales, aircraft rentals, a pilot shop and a

restaurant. It has two fixed-based operators and is home to more than 1,277

aircraft.

With more than 376,634 takeoffs and landings in 2008, it is the 20th busiest

of all U.S. airports and the 2nd busiest general aviation airport in the nation.

Phoenix Deer Valley Airport is a vital component of the city of Phoenix

Airport System.

The Airport encompasses approximately 914 acres of property and is located

15 miles north of downtown Phoenix near the intersection of Interstate 17

and Loop 101. South side access is from Deer Valley Road. North side

access is via Airport Road and Seventh Street.

The Airport is owned and operated by the city of Phoenix.

Aircraft and Simulators

Westwind School of Aeronautics currently operates a fleet of 25

aircraft and 3 flight simulators.

Of these aircraft, 22 are year 2000 models or newer aircraft. By using

newer aircraft, our aircraft require far less maintenance than what one

would see with an older fleet. Three new aircraft have been ordered

and will arrive approximately September 2009. An additional 3-

Cessna’s with Garmin G1000 Digital Panels and a Piper Seminole are

also available for lease.

When maintenance is required it is performed on premises, by a highly

skilled staff of 15 A&P mechanics and avionics technicians.
