Experience

We have been flight training in the Southern Tier since 1998. Whether you are flying for fun, for business, or for a career, we can pass on our experience to help guide you to your goals.

Earning Your PPL

Your pilot’s license is not the end — we rent our aircraft to qualified pilots so you can put your hard-earned license to work in your search for adventure or join the Goodrich Flying Club to gain access to a higher performance plane with more liberal usage rules.

Choosing a Flight School

Local aviation YouTube influencer, Luke Pylypciw, interviews Doug Goodrich, owner of the Goodrich Pilot Training Center, about what to look for in a flight school.

Our Location

Goodrich Aviation and the Pilot Training Center are located at the Greater Binghamton Airport (BGM)

Once at the Greater Binghamton Regional Airport, go around the circle past the terminal and look for Hangar 1 next to the water tower.

There is a Goodrich Aviation sign on the side of the building; also look for the green “Learn To Fly here” sign on the mailbox. Come to the front door and ring the doorbell.
