First Class Experiences

We aim to make each pilot a confident leader in the flight deck. Feedback helps us tailor our programs to do this as effectively as possible.

Micheal Sferrazza

Captain G150 | 2500Hrs.

This course is invaluable and every pilot should take part in it.

The DiSC assessment is such a valuable tool that helps you to understand how you and your colleagues show up in varying circumstances and why situations are dealt with the way they are. Having this knowledge allows you to be a more effective leader, communicate more effectively and be more vulnerable with your colleagues. As a captain myself, it is essential to facilitate an environment of open learning and open communication and this course gives you the tools to do just that. Kyle is also a fantastic facilitator- he creates a safe room to open up and really allows the conversation amongst participants to flow. Highly recommend for all pilots and leaders!

Everyone was amazed at the accuracy and effectiveness of DiSC.

Great leadership course on how to know yourself and how to deal with others in a productive, professional manner. Lots of active listening and respectful questions lead to better leaders, improved performance and beneficial outcomes. The DiSC program is an amazing tool to understand personalities and how the different personality types work together; everyone was amazed at the accuracy and effectiveness of DiSC.

Student Pilot | 300Hrs.

Would highly recommend the investment, it provides value to your character.

Entering the aviation industry I was looking for another opportunity to grow my knowledge and experience in taking steps to improve myself. I went into the course expecting to learn more about perception vs perspective as well as what makes a great first officer and a better captain.
 I can confidently say that I returned with so much more having a well rounded approach to leadership within and beyond the cockpit. Learning from individuals with decades of experience in aviation as well as giving a perspective of the newer generation, I believe that these kind of courses give a whole new defense to human factors in improving aviation safety.

This course helps any new or veteran pilot in developing a safe flight deck environment.

This course does an excellent job of explaining the root of leadership in a clear and precise method and tools.. This course helps any new or veteran pilot in developing a safe flight deck environment. In aviation, it is SAFETY FIRST.

I have attended a lot of lectures and CRM courses in my career. This was the first course I attended which made use of the DiSC model. I found it very eye opening and potentially game changing. I'm still digesting how to apply it to my life and career but my first impressions are positive.

This course will help you learn about yourself and can help you navigate around the challenges of human behaviours. It will help you in becoming a better person and enrich your life.

Jonathan Bell

I highly recommend this course to anyone who works in the cockpit. Having attended many leadership courses before, this one has stood out to me by giving me a profound understanding of my leadership tendencies and how to leverage this effectively in aviation and, more importantly, life. The course flew by, and I look forward to attending more courses held by First Class Leaders!
