Symphony Aircraft Industries (SAI),
is continuing to make inroads in the flight school training
market.
“The Symphony is exciting, fun and easy to fly,”
states Guy de Garment of Santa Barbara Flight Academy.
“It’s a great platform for teaching students to
fly.” As a flight school that embodies cutting-edge
technology, he also noted that the soon-to-be-available 160E
equipped with the Avidyne Entegra avionics suite will be ideal for
students wanting to train with up-to-date technology.
A flight school operator in Virginia is confident that the
Symphony 160 will help grow his business. He recently picked up his
aircraft and was impressed with seeing the facilities and meeting
the people who built his plane. He knows his customers will also be
really excited about the aircraft, too.
“Nothing compares,” notes Andy Johnson, Tidewater
School of Aeronautics. “Not only is the Symphony 160 a great
looking airplane, customers will be impressed with its powerful
engine, great useful load and maneuverability. The visibility is
great and there’s plenty of shoulder and leg room. That,
along with Formula 1 racing seats, makes it a very comfortable
aircraft to be in. Students will enjoy training in this
aircraft.”
Both schools agree that having the Symphony 160 in their fleet
will set them apart from their competition.
“We are thrilled that flight schools are distinguishing
the Symphony as an ideal training aircraft. With the addition of
these flight schools, we’ve substantially increased the
number of flight schools across the country that now has Symphony
aircraft in their fleet,” commented Tim Baldwin, Symphony
Vice-President, Sales and Marketing. “We expect this number
to increase significantly.”
