About Chi-Rho Aviation
Flight training done right.
Chi-Rho Aviation's mission is to deliver consistent, excellent, and tailored flight instruction at a fair price, right here at Chandler Municipal Airport.
Meet your instructor
Built around student success.
I founded Chi-Rho Aviation after seeing how many flight schools make profit and instructor hours their main priority. Too often, students become a way for instructors to build time for the airlines.
So I built Chi-Rho Aviation differently: with student success, safety, and the enjoyment of flying at the center of everything. When you train with me, you can be certain you'll get customized flight instruction from an instructor who is truly interested in your success.
Outside the cockpit, you'll find me spending time with friends, training Jiu-Jitsu, and serving at my local church.
What we stand for
Three things first.
Your success
Instruction tailored to how you learn and where you want to go, whether that's the airlines or weekend flying with family.
Safety
Consistent, excellent instruction that builds safe pilots, not just pilots who pass a checkride.
Joy of flying
Flying is a privilege and a thrill. We keep it that way, from your discovery flight to your last checkride.
Faith-based
More than a customer.
Chi-Rho Aviation is a faith-based company. To us, you are far more than a revenue opportunity. We put your interests ahead of our financial goals, which means honest pricing, honest advice, and never padding your hours.
Our name comes from the Chi-Rho, one of the earliest Christian symbols, formed from the first two Greek letters of “Christ.”
What students say
