Our Mission:

Meet The Pilots:

Rob “Bedo” Lyons; FAA Sport Pilot CFI
Rob entered the world of flight in 1999, when he started flying powered Para motors. Soon after, he moved into flying trikes and was hooked. He became a BFI instructor under the former “ultralight” category in 2001. Rob began organizing many group cross country flights throughout the Northwest and surrounding areas, most notably, a flight coined “Freedom Flight,” which was facilitated in memory of the 9-11 tragedy. It didn’t take long for Rob to discover his deeply rooted passion for the sport. His enthusiasm for flying is contagious, which his many friends, met through the sport, can attest to.

John “Wink” Winkenwader; FAA Sport Pilot CFI
John served in the United States Air Force, in the Com/Nav Maintenance Division. He later worked for Boeing on Com/Nav systems. His obvious affinity for flight eventually carried him into the world of ultralights. He too became a BFI instructor under the former “ultralight” category in 2000 and later gained certification for light sport maintenance reviews on sport pilot aircraft. John also enjoyed being a part of several cross country flight organizations. John’s love of the sport provides for a constant eagerness to share all its allurement with others.

Where did it all begin?

In the beginning, Rob and John had day jobs, pursuing the flying business only on a part time basis. In 2007, however, both pilots couldn’t resist taking this “hobby” to the next level. Rob sold his construction business and John retired from his computer repair business. Both parties relocated to Chelan, where much of their training had taken place and so began the operation of Adventure Aviation LLC. All parties are now having the time of their lives, helping others embrace the freedom of flight.
