Stories

The Bob Hoover Academy changed my life forever. Prior to attending BHA I had no knowledge of flying. In my 2 years at BHA I have accumulated a wealth of knowledge in class, on field trips, and on the airfield.

The BHA helped guide me into being the best form of myself possible on the ground and in the air.Eric Zapien, age 18
