Symphony 160 Becoming Familiar Sight At Flight Schools

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.”
