We are excited to announce the addition of two new instructors to our flight staff!

First we have Richard Gamble.  Richard is a "Continuing Aviation Lecturer" with Purdue University.  He has his Commercial in both Single and Multi, and is a CFII.  He has been a free lance instructor for almost 20 years.  He and his wife Rita have four children and live in Sweetser, IN. Richard is an avid runner and enjoys competing in multiple events each year, including the Indy Mini-Marathon and the Mississinewa Triathlon. He enjoys spending time outdoors camping, golfing or working around the house.

Next we have Ben Gottshall.  Ben soloed on his 16th birthday and received his Private certificate on his 17th.  He enlisted in the Navy and flew at military flying clubs for many years. Besides his professional flying career, he's flown everything from Decathlons to Cessnas to Pipers and T-34's. He has been an active member of the Civil Air Patrol ever since 1990 and is currently the Squadron Commander of the Clinton County Composite squadron located in Frankfort, Indiana. He was eventually picked up for ROTC and attended Purdue where he graduated from Purdue Flight and was hired by Chautauqua flying the Embraer 145/135. After that he was in an A-10 unit (switched from the Navy to the Air Force) and went to Air Force flight training while on a military leave from the airlines. Ben currently works for Polar Air Cargo flying a 747-400 visiting all corners of the planet. Ben says he loves to instruct and wants to keep the the love of flying spreading in any way that he can help.  "I am excited to be a part of the Glenndale family where it is being kept alive in an atmosphere that reminds me of "the good ol days!"

WE WANT TO WELCOME BOTH RICH AND BEN!  Both are now listed on our schedule page with their contact information.

YES, we will bring an airplane to you!  Your only cost will be the hobbs time to get the plane to you and back--you won't have to pay the pilots' time or the chase airplane time to bring it to you! This policy ALWAYS applies to Kokomo, Sheridan and Glenndale. This policy MAY apply to other airports as well so feel free to ask.  A minimum of a two-hour flight is required if the plane is brought to another location.

If you are taking dual, it can get even better! We'll bring it to you for Free! Here's the only catch... your instructor must be willing to pick it up and take it to you. So, you want your IFR in the 172RG (based out of OKK), but want to take lessons out of Sheridan? No problem, I'll bring the airplane with me! Want dual in the Cub or Champ out of Kokomo? No problem.

This policy only applies to our core airports (Kokomo, Glenndale and Sheridan). For airports outside of these, we will bring the airplane, but you will have to pay the hobbs time to do so. Any questions, please let us know!

Our Pinch Hitter Course is the perfect gift for the spouse who doesn't really want to learn to fly, but would like to be able to handle the plane in an emergency. Learn basic airplane control, navigation and emergency procidures in a classroom setting taught by a Certified Ground Instructor. Then learn the basics of take offs and landings with a Certified Flight Instructor.

The class cost $150 for the first person and another $50 for each additional person, and last approximately 4 hours.

After you complete the ground work, then you can start flying. The flight lessons cost $150 per flight hour in our airplane or $50 per hour in your airplane (that cost includes all ground time before and after each flight). You can basically take as many lessons as you wish, but typically it's a minimum of 4 flight hours. Any questions, give us a call at 765-319-3295!

Because we share airplanes between airports, sometimes we find it easier to just leave the airplane at one of our satellite locations instead of bringing it back to its home airport right away. When this happens, a pop-up screen will appear when you schedule the airplane. The pop-up message will tell you where the airplane is currently (if not the home airport) and when it will return. As always, if you ever have a question please call or email us.

Give the gift of flight! Our Discovery Flights last approximately 20 minutes. You can either "fly" the airplane with the help of one of our Certified Flight Instructors, or you can just sit and enjoy the ride!

A Discovery Flight cost only $49!

To purchase your Discovery Flight, email steve@kokomoftc.com or call 765-319-3295 and leave a message!
