Premium Instruction, without the Premium Cost.

ABout Jedair

JEDAIR Aviation was started by John Gorgoglione, a career instructor that places a focus on real world, practical knowledge. At JEDAIR, you will do more than just pass your certification tests. Not only will you become a safe and proficient pilot, but John proves that it can be done quickly and efficiently too, himself having achieved all his ratings in less than 15 months.

After instructing full time at other flight schools, John decided to create JEDAIR to enable him to better guide students through the process of flight training. Because of the lower overhead, training at JEDAIR can result in lower costs, higher quality training, and more flexibility when compared to other New England flight schools.

John is very familiar with what the FAA expects from new pilots and his recent and up-to-date knowledge makes him uniquely positioned to guide you through it in the most painless, efficient way possible, while providing realistic, practical expectations every step of the way. 

John’s instruction is defined by four core tenants: Humility, Honesty, Credibility, and Approachability. Not sure what this means? It will be obvious once you take your first lesson with him.

One thing, among many, that makes JEDAIR unique among flight schools is that it is family owned. As such, quality aircraft maintenance is always the number one priority. Many flight school’s say that safety is paramount, while also simultaneously being very reluctant to make proper repairs or failing to properly maintain the aircraft’s documentation. That doesn’t happen at JEDAIR, as John’s own parents (Annette and David) are the primary owners of the aircraft. Who would allow their family to fly an unsafe aircraft?
