Premier Flight Center: what do users think?
Ryan Kuse: As a student here, I am extremely pleased.You can tell the staff cares about students. They pay attention to your progress, they don’t waste your time or efforts on unnecessary flights, and they encourage good ADM over ‘just get your hours in’When CFIs leave to move upwards in their careers, they care about their students and try to ensure a smooth transition to another instructor. That said, the team here is not a just bunch of new, inexperienced instructors, they have experienced leaders, and those new instructors that make the cut, are great at what they do. This isn’t an airline pilot farm, this is a flight school.It’s a tight enough community of students and instructors that I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t know at least my first name, and we all share learning experiences because we actively see enough of each other to benefit from shared stories.They’re hooked up with the local college as well, so you CAN go here through a college program.If you’re in the Ozarks, and you want the structure of a 141 school with the camaraderie and family feeling of a 61 school. Then you probably should come and talk to the folks here at Premier.
Melissa Fisher: Super friendly staff and very clean lobby and restrooms.
Lance Dixon: Brian Morgan, the DPE, has so much passion for safety, and teaching students to be pilots real pilots, not just some stick who can do the maneuvers.it pleases me so much, that I plan to come to work at the school when I get my ratings and retire from my other full time job.
Dave N: Awesome flight school!! I was down from chicago and called last minute to see if they could fit me in just to fly around the area for a few hours. They were kind enough to grab an instructor last minute and get me flying. Noah, one of the instructors came with me and we flew a warrior down to branson for the famous 400.00 hamburger lol. He was a great instructor, very professional and a really nice guy. The flight school itself is in the old terminal building and is really spacious, well kept and has an awesome redbird simulator. Their planes seem to me kept in great condition and were all nice and clean. I hope to get back here sometime in the near future.
Paulbo D.: Its in the old airport terminal

Sky Adventures: what do users think?
Tony Riley: Had an amazing time on our Discovery flight. Took the wife and son for 30 minutes flight and also got to see some Christmas lights. Thank you Nathan for an amazing time
Andy Gram: Went to Sky Adventures as a new customer and someone who has never been in the cockpit of an aircraft before, so I wasn’t expecting too much. I had Josh as my instructor, who was great. Very knowledgable and he makes everything very easy to understand. However, the reason for this 2 star review is because on their website it shows an hourly rate of $130 at the top end for training and $99 for a Discovery Flight. Well I went in for a Discovery Flight expecting to pay $100 for a half hour or an hour of flight time. Unfortunately, we had some bad weather hit just before we were planning to take off. Josh made the decision to take me up in the air but just for a few minutes so that I could get the experience, which I am grateful for. And it was amazing. But, just 4 minutes later we landed and the amount I owed for the experience was $90! For 4 minutes in the air... I learned a lot but I would have rather saved my $90 in this situation and just paid $130 for a full hour on a better day. $90 for 4 minutes of airtime is excessive. It was a blast and I do plan to return, but I definitely recommend that you get a price total before you commit to anything.
Scott Vande Griend: I received my PPL through Sky Adventures. Josh Monson is a terrific instructor. He is patient and encouraging. He has also assembled a great team of instructors and assistants !
Keith Bellanger: I’m currently a student pilot with SkyAdventures and I have to say it is the best decision I have ever made. I am able to fly and pursue a dream while paying as funds are available so I don’t go into debt. SkyAdventures is an extremely flexible and team based community. The Flight Instructors do a great job at working together to cater to each individual student and provide them with the skills, information, and materials that they need to succeed.
Chad Jensen: Got my PPL with Josh Monson and almost complete with my instrument rating with him as well. I’ve worked with 4 different instructors. He has been my favorite. Just the right amount of tough. I still remember our debrief when he became uncharacteristically firm and assertive after I had a stall horn on my base to final turn. That conversation might have saved my life.
