Why Fort Myers Beach pilots train at Page Field
There is something fitting about learning to fly when you live on Estero Island. From Fort Myers Beach, Page Field is a quick trip up Summerlin Road, and the flying itself takes you right back over the water you call home — the beaches, Estero Bay, and Sanibel just off the wingtip.
Our Fort Myers Beach students get the same boutique experience everyone does: private instruction in a Piper Cherokee 140, a 95% first-time checkride pass rate, and an instructor who knows your name and your goals. No assembly-line training, ever.
Coastal flying is also some of the most rewarding scenery in the country for a new pilot — and learning at a towered airport means you graduate comfortable talking to ATC anywhere you go.
Getting here from Fort Myers Beach
Take Summerlin Road off the island toward Fort Myers, then on to Page Field via Cleveland Avenue.
