I am a General Aviation Private Pilot with an Instrument Certification. I have more than 500
hours of flight time and home base at Reigle Airport (58N), Palmyra PA.
A significant amount of my flight training, ground instruction and recertification has been done
with Darrell Dethlefs, of Premier Pilot Training. Although legally licensed to fly without an FAA
Instructor, I take advantage of Darrell’s background and his proximity to Central PA to
continually learn and expand my flying experience in the air and on the ground. His personal
and professional demeanor keeps me sharp in the cockpit while not flying in fear of an
overbearing instructor who can change the experience in a heartbeat. Darrell’s experience in
single and multi-engine aircraft and turbo aircraft brings an enhanced level of instruction
because of his broad experience in general aviation. From engine start, run-up, taxi, take off,
flying and returning into the pattern for a consistent landing, Darrell’s experience in multiple
platforms ensures a safe flight…with appropriate coaching and support before and afterward.
Instruction by Darrell and the team at Premier Pilot Training will put a student pilot or an
experienced, licensed pilot in a position for a safe and enjoyable flying experience.
