Services
I’m not a veteran instructor, but I am a system builder with a genuine passion for enhancing aviation education. My services are built on what I needed as a student: structure, clarity, and a clear path through every phase of training.
Now, I’m turning that insight into tools and training that support students, instructors, and flight schools alike. Everything I offer is grounded in FAA standards, ACS methodology, and a respectful approach that integrates with the systems you already use.
Transforming Flight Training with Structure, Skill & Scenario-Based Precision
At Next Gen Pilot Training™, we offer a complete suite of flight instruction services engineered to accelerate learning, enhance confidence, and ensure full FAA compliance. Whether you’re brand new to aviation or working toward advanced ratings, our services adapt to your level and elevate your mastery.
Sample Title

The Next Gen Difference: Instruction Built for the Future
Backed by Connor’s training at Sierra Charlie Aviation and his FAA-aligned, mentor-driven approach, our services are not just about logging time; they’re about building judgment, professionalism, and long-term pilot capability.
How I Personalize Your Learning
Not everyone learns the same way, and that’s something traditional flight instruction often overlooks.
To help each student succeed more quickly and confidently, I developed a tool called the Learning Style Selector. It identifies how you naturally absorb and retain information, whether that’s visually, verbally, kinesthetically, through reading/writing, or through logic, and I adjust the delivery to match.
The five learning styles I teach:
Visual
Flowcharts, cockpit diagrams, and motion-based checklists
Auditory
Preflight briefings, callouts, and spoken walk-throughs
Kinesthetic
Cockpit flows, step-by-step maneuvers, and hands-on repetition
Reading/Writing
Written notes, summaries, and ACS-based outlines
Logical
Systems sequencing, performance calculations, and “what-if” decision trees
This isn’t extra BS, it’s how we reduce overwhelm, improve understanding, and make every flight hour more effective.

My Secret Sauce: Turning Your Curriculum Into Gold
I don’t replace your curriculum, I amplify it.
You bring the structure. I deliver it through the lens of how each student learns best. Whether it’s a kinesthetic learner who thrives on cockpit flow or a visual learner who benefits from diagrams and flowcharts, I adapt the delivery, not the content.
Then I bring each lesson to life with real-world flying examples, followed by scenario-driven questions that stimulate deeper thinking. Each lesson wraps up with a targeted quiz to reinforce retention, all while staying fully FAA-compliant and aligned with your school’s SOPs and ACS requirements.
