Since 2019, I’ve been trying to show what it’s like to own your own airplane and fly where you’d like, and demonstrate how you can do it, too!
A Note from Charlie
Charlie Gasmire
Founder / Pilot
Flying and owning an airplane has profoundly changed my life, and I deeply want others to know that it is something they can do, too.
My goal that I work towards every day is that Airplane Academy would be a hub of robust resources to serve you on your aviation journey. And I’m investing in creating new resources all of the time. So whether you are just starting to explore what it would take to become a pilot, trying to better afford it, or are looking to buy an airplane, there’s something here for you.
If you’re just starting out, I highly recommend you pick up my free guide that has 23 resources that will jump start your aviation journey. I crammed as much value and digestible content as I could into this 25-page PDF. It addresses just about every question I get from new pilots all in one place, with short reference answers and links to broader resources on each topic. You can grab it for free below!
If you’re looking to buy an airplane now or in the future, grab my Airplane Buying Roadmap which is a 19-page PDF that walks you through each step of the airplane buying process from start to finish. It’s jam-packed but still really digestible! You can grab it for free below!
