Where this page comes from
Everything above is assembled from 2 pages of their own website, read in July 2026, and their public Google Maps listing. Nobody here has called Barnes Aviation, visited them, or flown with them, so there is no opinion of ours on this page and no rating of ours anywhere on it. When we do call a school it gets a ✓ and a summary written by a person — you can see what that looks like on the Arizona pages.
If something here is out of date, it is ours to fix and theirs to correct — tell us and we will change it.
What we do not know about Barnes Aviation yet
- Which certificates and ratings they actually teach — their site does not list them.
- Whether they run an FAA Part 141 programme or train under Part 61. Most independents never publish it, and a blank here is not a no.
- Whether they take complete beginners, and what a first lesson with them costs.
- Their prices. They do not publish a rate card, and almost no school does.
- When their office is actually open.
Every one of those is a phone call, and it is the call we make for free. Tell us what matters to you and we will ask them, then tell you what they said — including if the answer is that you should go somewhere else.

What do the public reviews say?
Google shows a 4.8 rating across 26 reviews (checked July 2026). We show that as plain text rather than dressing it up as our own rating, because we did not collect it and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
