Hello, I'm Tom L..
I became a pilot in 1993 and Aviation has been my career ever since. I started as a flight instructor for a major university while seeking my bachelors degree before being accepted to the US Navy. There, I flew and began instructing in tactical jets for nearly 20 years. In my off time I enjoyed being a freelance flight instructor at the local airfield. I learned so much about flight instruction during this period of my life. After the Navy I did a short stint with a Part 135 operation before being hired at a major Airline which is what I currently do for employment. I reside in the Pacific Northwest and own a 1978 Cessna U206G which I try to regularly fly.

- PS
Tom helped me figure out the next steps in my aviation journey. I reached out to him for guidance, and he provided clear and practical advice on how to prepare for both high-performance and complex endorsements. He broke down the process for each one, and ensured I knew exactly what to expect. Tom also took the time to explain what it's like to pursue an instrument rating and gave me a solid understanding of what's involved.
