Buffalo and Rochester, NY's premier flight training organization, Bob Miller Flight Training, Inc. (BMFT) has one simple but critically important goal:
To provide each of our training pilots with the aeronautical decision making and flight maneuvering skills to remain safe under all circumstances aloft.
Unlike other more traditional flight schools, we embrace the concept of scenario-based training based upon the FAA/Industry training model. Rather than having our students go through rote training in local practice areas, each training flight is an actual mission in real weather to distant airports.
We tailor our curriculum to the unique needs of each training pilot. Early morning to late evening, week days, and week-end training times enable even the busiest business executive or professional to fit flight training into his or her schedule.
In learning to fly or advancing your training, you want the best training from the best instructors, along with access to pilot-friendly airplanes. And you want to learn in a safe, comfortable, and dynamic environment. Most of all, you want to learn from those who have seen and done it all before. Many times before. Bob Miller Flight Training, Inc. offers all of this and more.
The BMFT Difference
Choosing the best flight school for you is one of the most important decisions you can make. Here are a few considerations to keep in mind:
Safety
Bob Miller Flight Training, Inc.meets the highest standards of flight safety. Each of our aircraft routinely undergoes rigorous inspections by teams of FAA specialists. Equally important, each of our certificated flight instructors receive regularly scheduled flight checks to ensure that they, too, demonstrate the highest standards of safety.
Flight Training Curriculum
As an official Cessna Pilot Center, BMFT is an authorized user of Cessna's remarkable online flight training curriculum. Developed by the world's oldest and largest flight training organization, this online curriculum enables our students to complete their training an average of 30 percent faster and at 30 percent overall lower cost than the national average.

Flight Training Aircraft
BMFT maintains the largest fleet of NEW Cessna aircraft of any flight school in the Buffalo and Rochester, NY region. Each is equipped with the latest in computerized glass instrument panel technology. In a world where technology expands daily, no flight school today can afford to use yesterday's antiquated aircraft in today's world of flight.
Our aircraft fleet also includes the newest addition to the light sport flying - the remarkable Cessna SkyCatcher.
More importantly where safety is first priority, BMFT's fleet is each equipped with in-flight weather, traffic, and terrain avoidance technology, digital autopilot systems, and computerized flight directors. Flying without this technology is like driving without seat belts. Speaking of seat belts, our training aircraft are also equipped with air bags!

Instrument Pilot Refresher Webinar beginning Tuesday, November 1st
Bob Miller will be conducting an 8-week instrument pilot ground/refresher webinar course beginning Tuesday, November 1, from 7pm to 9pm EST (0000Z to 0200Z).
This fast-paced course is designed for the serious instrument pilot who wants to review all the critical components of the complex world of IFR flight. This "live" interactive course will include the organization and structure of the national airspace system as it pertains to the instrument pilot.
It will dig deeply into the nuances of terminal instrument procedures, low and high altitude en route charts, arrival and departure procedures, MVAs, and the complexities of precision RNAV/GPS approach procedures. It take a close look at what lies in the future including ADS-B and our NextGen national airspace system.
The course will unlock the mysteries of IFR communications and how to "sweet talk" the system to obtain shortcuts to your destination. It will take a close look at IFR flight risks with special emphasis on defensive icing and embedded thunderstorm avoidance strategies.
This is NOT your traditional basic instrument practical test prep course. Instead, this 8-week webinar program takes you into the real world of instrument flight where busy "take-no-prisoner" controllers issue rapid-fire clearances in the world's most congested airspace. This is a world seldom seen by timid instrument flight instructors and fair weather-only instrument pilots.
The first session of this 8-week course is free. If you like the first session, you can register for the remaining seven seven sessions.
What if you have to miss a session or two? No problem. Each session is recorded. All participants will be given a web link that can be used anytime to access any missed session in their entirety. What could be easier?
