Runway One Nine Aviation

Crab Island at Destin from 9,000 feet! Flew by this morning from Louisiana and that place is still packed!

Fufun fact: there's an airport just minutes away from here that you can fly into as a private pilot. Why drive forever when you can get there in a fraction of the time?

Today we had the pleasure of partnering with First Flight Georgia so fly a bunch of kids and teens around! It was a ton of fun for the pilots and the kids!

Today, Corey flew to Perry, Ga as a student pilot and left as a certificated private pilot! He's been flying for a while and needed the final push to get things done, so we made it happen. Super excited to have helped him with this!

Congratulations to Will! A few weeks ago he earned his private pilot certificate. And today he earned his tailwheel endorsement! Neither of these are easy tasks,so he had to work for them, but he absolutely got it done!

Another proud CFI moment! Today, Rith got to fly a plane all by himself!

Hitting that first solo is a huge accomplishment and big step towards getting his private pilot certificate. Next up, we'll start flying at night, further from home, and hitting the other requirements to get him ready for checkride.

Yesterday Hannah took her discovery flight! With family already pursuing aviation, she’s officially joined the club ✈️

We’re excited to see her start lessons this summer once school’s out!

Got a teen who’s too busy during the school year but looking for something meaningful this summer? Flight training isn’t just something to pass the time — it builds discipline, confidence, and real-world skills that last a lifetime.

Between vacations, camps, and everything else summer brings, schedules fill up quickly. Let’s find a plan that works for your family—reach out to get started.

Last minute flight to Lagrange in the rain? Not a problem. Many planes are equipped with suitable equipment to provide navigation and weather information. This makes it safer and easier to deal with changes that occur en route.

Proud CFI moment today. :)

Congratulations to Will Rogers on completing his Private Pilot Checkride today! He's been hard at work for several months, had the setback of hitting a bird with a plane and having to transition to a different plane to complete his training, and still got it knocked out. He's officially got his "license to learn" and can go out and enjoy the benefits of his hard earned certificate.
