Ocean Aviation

I moved from NJ to Delaware before I had a chance to complete my private pilot training due to the Canadian wildfires of 2023. I enrolled at Ocean Aviation in their finish-up program, flying out of Georgetown. I met with the president of the company initially and he graciously listened to and understood my situation and began formulating a plan to complete my training. One of the challenges we had to overcome was that I used to fly Pipers in NJ and his academy featured Cessnas. As such, he assigned an instructor who had previously made the same transition, from flying a low wing designed aircraft to a high wing one. We gelled immediately and my training continued at a rapid pace. I enjoyed every member of the Ocean Aviation team I encountered, especially my instructor Ryan Duvall and they did a great job getting me across the finish line in the most efficient manner possible. They all made me feel really welcome and I could tell other students I met were feeling the same sense of being on the right place. They do a great job on the scheduling front as well as with the training and I thoroughly enjoyed my association with them. I look forward to continuing our business relationship!!

I would like to thank Ocean Aviation and CFI Ryan Duvall for the most increadble 2 days of basic flight instruction for my Son Patrick while we were at Ocean City on vacation. As a former pilot with about 700 hours, I can say without hesitation Ryan is clearly one the finest CFI's I have ever met. I wanted to give my 31 year old son a taste of flying that I loved for many years, and boy...,did OA and Ryan deliver. Top quality organization, late model aircraft, many with G1000, and truly wonderful staff.
If you want to take a Cessna Discover Flight, or start training for any level pilot ticket, check out Ocean Aviation . 5 stars all the way !

Got a Discovery Flight for my birthday and really didn't know what to expect. I was greeted at the front desk and within 30 minutes of arrival for my appointment was out by the plane. I did not expect to be as hands-on as I was. My CFI was Ryan, and he was absolutely perfect. He's only 21yo, but has the knowledge and passion of a seasoned vet. He really made the whole thing for me, and I am now considering getting my full private license. The owner met us as we left, and was also very friendly. Thanks again for the great time, highly recommend.
