Welcome to
Advantage Aviation!

Ground School at Advantage starting up soon. Sign up early.
Starting June 2, 2009 - Private pilot ground school.

Advantage Aviation is located at the Palo Alto Airport in the heart of Silicon Valley. From the Palo Alto airport, you can take your friends on an aerial tour of the San Francisco Bay or fly to Half Moon Bay in just 15 minutes. Imagine flying to Monterey or Napa for lunch in less than an hour. Fly to Sea Ranch, Yosemite, or Lake Tahoe for the day or spend the weekend. Wherever you decide to go, flying makes the journey enjoyable and Advantage Aviation makes it fun, safe and affordable.

Learning to fly or a seasoned pilot, Advantage Aviation has something to offer. We have a newly remodeled 2800 square foot flight training facility and some of the best flight instructors in the Bay Area. Our main pilot lounge doubles as a meeting room for groups to conduct ground schools, safety seminars or other social events. In addition to four private training rooms, we have a conference room that can be reserved by our members. We also offer a weather briefing room and high-speed wireless Internet access.

Since we have our own private ramp, our planes are located just outside the door. There is no reason to walk to the other side of the field to get to your aircraft. We also provide private parking for our overnight travelers. Our 10,000 square foot hanger is used to provide shelter for our customer's aircraft and to provide both in-house and outside maintenance. We also offer complete aircraft detailing services.
