GET TO KNOW THE SCHOOL
A closer look.
Cal Aggie Flyers, also identified as Cal Aggie Flying Farmers, combines a nonprofit flying-club model with individual instruction at University Airport in Davis. Membership is open beyond the university community. Its published training includes private, instrument, commercial single- or multiengine, CFI and ATP options, plus G1000 transition and introductory flying. The fleet ranges from Cessna 152s and conventionally equipped 172s to G1000-equipped 172SPs and a Piper Seminole. A Redbird simulator supplements training, and membership provides continuing access to rental aircraft subject to club rules and checkouts.
Open membership
The nonprofit club says anyone is welcome to join, subject to its application and operating rules.
Analog and glass options

Advanced training catalog
Instrument, commercial single- or multiengine, CFI, ATP and G1000 training are expressly published.
Published training options.
The school’s published options are summarized below. Each note explains the training type and what to clarify when comparing the school’s exact course.
Private pilot
A private-pilot training path. Compare the aircraft used, ground-school arrangements and how lessons progress from initial skills to practical-test preparation.
Instrument rating
Training focused on instrument flying, procedures and planning. Compare aircraft and simulator use, scheduling and the preparation expected before flight lessons.
Commercial pilot — single and multiengine
A commercial-pilot training option. Ask which aircraft category, prerequisites, experience-building flights and practical-test preparation are included.
Multiengine training
Training in multiengine aircraft. Confirm whether the course is an initial rating, an add-on or a transition, and which aircraft will be available.
CFI
Training in teaching, lesson preparation and instructional flying. Ask which instructor qualification is included and how practice teaching is assessed.
ATP training
Advanced preparation for pilots pursuing an airline transport qualification. Establish entry experience, aircraft category and the exact course scope before comparing packages.
G1000 transition
Preparation for a particular aircraft or operating configuration. Confirm the model, avionics, entry experience and qualification or checkout the course provides.
Discovery flight
An introductory lesson to explore the aircraft and teaching approach. Ask about flight time, who will instruct you and what the quoted price includes.
Simulator training
Practice using a training device. Ask which device is used, whether an instructor is included and how the sessions support your particular course.

TRAINING FIT
Our school review.
The club format may be attractive to someone who wants both training and an ongoing flying community. Compare monthly membership costs, aircraft availability and insurance terms with a conventional school. The mix of analog and glass-cockpit Cessnas offers choices, while the Seminole supports an explicitly published multiengine pathway. The school says the office’s posted rental rates govern, so online figures should not be treated as a current quote. Confirm the current scope and prerequisites of advanced ATP or instructor training.

WHAT THE AVAILABLE FEEDBACK TELLS US
Student review evidence.
The school-and-location searches for Cal Aggie Flyers in Davis did not establish usable independent student feedback in the accessible results reviewed. The BestAviation listing explicitly says it has not been reviewed. This is a limit of the evidence found, not a finding about training quality or a claim that reviews do not exist elsewhere. Request recent local student references, then compare their actual lesson frequency, instructor continuity, final costs and checkride preparation with the written course proposal.
