Soaring Above All Other Flight Schools!

In April 2007, American Winds Flight Academy (AWFA) was granted accreditation by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training (ACCET). This honor allowed us to become one of only three flight schools in the United States to be Nationally Accredited!  ACCET is officially recognized by the U.S. Department of Education since 1978, ACCET is “a reliable authority as to the quality of education or training provided by institutions of higher education and the programs they accredit.”

American Winds Makes Dreams Come True

LOOK WHERE our PILOTS are NOW!


Flight School Is Our Middle Name

American Winds is the realized dream of President Mike Kolomichuk and Chief Flight Instructor, Denise Hobart. In January 2002, we opened our doors and a few months later received certification, making us the only FAA-licensed flight school in Akron, Ohio.

Of the 14 FAA-licensed (Part 141) flight schools in Ohio, AWFA is one of only two in Northeast Ohio. We also are a certified (FAA Part 135) private aircraft charter service. Our goal is to ensure that you have an outstanding flight experience each and every time.

We thrive on the success of our flight students and the satisfaction of our private charter clients. American Winds is committed to an unmatched standard of excellence and is dedicated to keeping aviation a safe, well-respected profession.

AWFA employs fresh minds to instruct students and pass on their knowledge of aviation.  It is the top priority of each AWFA instructor to help students achieve their personal aviation goals.

AWFA is open for the "Weekend Warriors" as well as those who wish to make flying a career.

At AWFA, we are building a legacy.

Dream to fly.  Live to fly.  Live the dream.
