Looking for a Beechcraft Duchess for training in New Jersey.

[gkrangers]

Anyone know of a flight school in New Jersey that operates a Duchess?

Certified Flyers II does...er...did when I interviewed there anyway.

Check out their website.

Nice enough people...just wasn't looking for a ground instructor position.

Cuz I have 25 hours in it, and if I can't finish the training in Florida, would like to finish it at home.

I think a place called wagner aviation sent me something in the mail a while ago about a duchess. Princeton Airport has a Seminole but I would steer clear of that place.

Everyone has a Seminole and I'd never set foot at Princeton. hence my quest for a Duchess, but I'll probably extend my stay in Florida a week or two to get my Multi comm..

Wagner Airways in Greenwood Lake Airport have a few Duchess and offer a multi-engine time building program and also flight training. The airport is uncontrolled so no delays on the GND. I never flew/rented out of there and also heard the owner is a dick.

As stated Certified Flyers has a Duchess at MMU.

Wagner has two or three up at Greenwood lake. I've heard that the aicraft are pretty beat up and the mx isn't very good.

Mercer County College also has one at Trenton Robbinsville, but I don't think it will be up and running for another month or so.

Those are the three places I know of in NJ. If anyone else knows of any other place I'd be curious myself. For that matter any type of multi that's in good shape for a reasonable price.

Reasonable priced twin in NJ? Good luck...

I work with a guy who used to instruct at Wagner. From what he's said I'd stay away from it.

Can you elaborate on that at all? I've heard from people that have flown there Duchess's (Duchii?????), both at Lincoln Park and at Greenwood Lake, and they said that the aircraft are in bad shape. I'd like to know what an instructor had to say.

Flight school to avoid!

Whatever you do. Dont go to wagner airways! Their courses are overpriced and the staff is horrible. Working for them is even worse. Bad planes + bad staff = Bad flight school.

I was down there a few months ago and they were repairing the Seneca One, that they had that was hit by another aircraft that taxied into it. Were you thinking of the Seneca or has something changed since I was there last?
