Guaranteed Pricing

When it comes to pricing, buyer beware! Other schools offer lower prices, but you'll likely end up paying more than their quoted rate because they price based on the FAA's minimum requirements. Riverside Flight Center offers a Guaranteed all-inclusive fixed fee for training. At RFC, students can train up to 82 hours (if needed) for their Private and up to 72 hours (if needed) for their Instrument without paying extra.
