” Tom is an amazing instructor and mentor. I’m currently pursuing all pilot ratings with him and can say with upmost confidence that Tom is a fountain of knowledge. If you’re looking for the best of the best, look no further!”

John Sadlowski

 ” I’m not one to usually write reviews, but I thought it was appropriate in this situation. I was in the area for work and decided to have Tom do my BFR. Tom is a very knowledgeable CFI and is also easy going and friendly. I had a lot of fun flying with him. There was no pressure and no worries. It was well worth it and I would recommend flying with Tom. “

Michelle Alocer

” Exceptional service and flight. He coordinated with my best friend a surprise flight to the Florida Keys! He made sure we had everything we needed for a great time on the flight and at the keys. Bella flights made sure we had great views from the sky for pictures and they were even able to get my surprise on video! I will definitely be flying with Tom and his crew again. The whole experience was amazing.”

” It’s my absolute pleasure to recommend anyone looking to complete pilot certifications to complete them with Tom at KISM. Tom and I have been flying together for three years now. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Tom, and came to know him as a truly valuable and knowledgeable CFI. He is honest, dependable, and incredibly hardworking. Beyond that, he has extensive experience and expertise in aviation which is a huge advantage to anyone seeking a rewarding experience beginning their own aviation journey”
