About CP Aviation
We are a local, family owned business offering Flight Training, specialized Emergency Manuever Training, Scenic Flights, Aerobatic Rides, meticulous Aircraft Maintenance, in a friendly hometown atmosphere, since 1987.
We are located at the historic Santa Paula Airport (SZP) in Santa Paula, California. CP Aviation is renowned the world over for its friendly atmosphere and quality instruction. Another advantage of flight training at Santa Paula is our clear skies, which are seldom troubled for long by the intrusion of the local marine layer. 2007 marked our twentieth anniversary as CP Aviation, but a steady stream of student pilots has been passing through our doors since the 1930's.

Our Certified Flight Instructors are available throughout the week to fit your training schedule. CP Aviation is home to three Master CFI's, including Judy Phelps, 2011 National CFI of the Year. We also have Dennis Magdaleno, an FAA Designated Pilot Examiner, as our Chief Pilot.
Our experienced instructors have a variety of specialized teaching skills, offering primary, instrument, and commercial instruction, training for aspiring flight instructors, tailwheel and aerobatic training seven days a week, from 8 am until dusk. CP Aviation's instructors have accumulated many thousands of hours of flight experience. They are noted for the sincere and individual attention they give each and every student, from primary training through advanced!
As a Cessna Pilot Center, we offer complete training packages of educational materials for primary training, instrument training, and commercial training.
In addition, we have a world renowned Emergency Maneuver Training © program. On any given day, the skies above the fertile Santa Clara Valley, 60 miles northwest of Los Angeles, vibrate with the sounds of airplanes looping, rolling, and spinning through the California sunshine. Much of this activity originates from CP Aviation, Inc. Blending in with the historic charm of the airport, CP Aviation's friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere masks the scope of its international reputation for Emergency Maneuver and Aerobatic Training Programs.
Pilots from all over the U.S., Japan, and Europe make pilgrimages to Santa Paula not only to enroll in the EMT© Program, or to experience the airport's unique environment, but also to take tailwheel transition and primary flight training. About half of CP Aviation's flight instructors are also qualified to teach the EMT course.
