KGEU

They were places where a student or renter pilot could go where he/she was important and their individual needs as a student were both recognized and fulfilled. AFTC was created for that purpose. Since then, AFTC has grown to include a new 5,000 square foot training building and over 5,400 square feet of dedicated maintenance hangar. AFTC's fleet includes a wide variety of aircraft from several varieties of aircraft, through trainers, rentals and multi-engine aircraft, manufactured by Cessna & Piper.
