Aviation should feel exciting—not overwhelming.

With more than 28 years of experience in education, I’ve built Fly With Dr. Shannon around one simple idea: students learn best when complex concepts are explained clearly, instruction feels personal, and they have an instructor who genuinely wants them to succeed.

As an Aeronautics Professor, Commercial Pilot, and Advanced Ground Instructor, I bring together decades of teaching experience and real-world aviation knowledge to help aspiring pilots build a strong foundation.

Whether you're preparing for the FAA Private Pilot Knowledge Test, beginning flight training, or simply trying to make sense of weather, navigation, aircraft systems, and regulations, my goal is to help you become a knowledgeable, confident, and safe pilot.
