Hello fellow aviators! My name is Emilio Martinez and I’m a flight instructor based out of DFW. I’m a former teacher of 6 years, a husband and father of 3. I love flying and experiencing the world through travel. As a kid, my dream was to become an astronaut. I loved outer space! In high-school I had the fortune to be apart of an aviation program where I was introduced to fundamentals of aerodynamics and basic A&P hands on concepts all under the supervision of the FAA. It’s what really got me into aviation. As I transitioned out of teaching I knew flying was the end goal for me. I’m currently instructing independently, slowly building up my hours to ATP minimums. The goal is to fly for an airliner based out of Dallas. I love flying and I love meeting new people. Let’s connect!

Hey fellow aviators! My name is Emilio Martinez. I’m an independent CFI/CFII in DFW. I offer flight and ground training for Private ASEL, Instrument, Commercial ASEL, complex or high performance endorsements, flight reviews, and IPC’s. I’m currently pursuing my MEI because I’m under the firm belief that a good pilot is always learning and that I’m a student just as much as I am an instructor....
