Bonita Springs sits midway between Naples and Fort Myers, putting Core Aviator Training at Page Field (KFMY) just 25–30 minutes away — about 20 miles up US-41 or I-75 — for private, one-on-one flight lessons in our Piper Cherokee 140.
Perfectly positioned to learn to fly
From Bonita Beach Road and the Coconut Point area, Page Field is close enough to fly multiple times a week — the single biggest factor in how quickly you finish your Private Pilot License.
