What Clients Say

Grayson is great and his remote training method has a lot of merit. We did a mock oral for my upcoming checkride and it was time and money well spent. He's knowledgeable and personable — it was fun and I learned from it. I flat out told him he needs to raise his prices and I'm back for more.

Rick Bentley
Student Pilot

Mr. Bertaina consistently sends me well trained applicants, whose logbooks are neat and concise. There are typically no surprises during the oral portion of the evaluation. His applicants are very confident in the airplane and consistently meet or exceed the standards during the flight portion of the evaluation.

Rob Belisario
Designated Pilot Examiner — KSYR

Grayson has guided me from my very first flight to the final stages of my Commercial Pilot License. At each phase, he knew how to build my confidence while challenging me to become a better, more precise pilot. His mentorship hasn't ended as he leaves to fly jets for the Air Force — he has continued to check in to ensure my training was on track. He has been more than an instructor; he has been a teacher, a mentor, and a friend.
