2/16/2020 - Took the Stearman Training with Tim Preston. Great experience and learning the history of the Stearman was a bonus.
Recommend highly. - Submitted by Jim Crawford

9/16/2015 - I recently got my tailwheel endorsement with Preston Aviation and had a great time doing it! Over the course of three days, I flew with Tim from the backseat of their J-3 Cub. I can't say enough about Tim's approach to teaching. Winter Haven Airport was never overly-busy and it's a non-towered airport, so pattern work was a breeze. I can't think of too many ways to earn a tailwheel endorsement that are better than flying in a beautiful J-3 Cub, with the door and window open, and with great people like Tim and Peggy! - Submitted by Justin Redfield
