In the flight training area, Intercept Aviation offers a broad curriculum that spans every FAA airplane certificate: Private Pilot, Instrument, Commercial SEL​/​ MEL, and Flight Instructor certifications. Training is delivered through both structured programs and flexible, student-paced pathways, with access to a high-performance fleet featuring Diamond aircraft, a Vans RV‑12, and a Bellanca Super Decathlon for aerobatic and tailwheel instruction. Pricing for training is transparent and competitive—rental rates begin at about $150​/​hour for the RV‑12, around $200​/​hour for the Super Decathlon, and $430​/​hour for the twin-engine DA‑42. The team at Intercept has amassed over 10,000 flight instructor hours and decades of maintenance experience. Instructors like Noah Matisoff, Darrin Humphrey, Rowan Rippl, Jason Nemeroff, and Holly Cowherd each bring around 1,600–2,200 flight hours, blending professional expertise with individualized mentoring. Students comment on the modern, well-kept aircraft and efficient, supportive instruction designed to achieve ratings promptly and confidently. Maintenance is another cornerstone of the operation. Intercept provides annual inspections, upgrades, and routine care—often on Diamond, Cirrus, or Cessna aircraft—and is committed to completing work on time and on budget, avoiding “sticker shock.” The team prioritizes clear communication and quality assurance throughout servicing. In addition, Intercept facilitates aircraft sales and leasebacks, supporting customers through every phase from listing to closing. They also offer hangar space and FBO-style services including aircraft storage and support products, making them a convenient one-stop aviation hub. Scappoose Airport provides an ideal backdrop for training. With its relatively uncrowded traffic flow compared to nearby Portland or Hillsboro, yet still featuring instrument approaches and reliever operations, students gain valuable regional experience without excessive complexity . The airport’s open layout, community viewing area, and mix of flight schools, maintenance shops, and avionics specialists contribute to a vibrant general aviation culture. - **Do NOT use the inquiry feature on this page, as it sends messages to Skyfarer Academy instead of the flight school.
