I love little Freeway and their instructors. They have a decent fleet of Cessna 152’s, 172’s, and the Arrow. Could they be better equipped? Sure. But you’re using it to train. It doesn’t need all the bells and whistles. The Arrow purrs like a kitten. Also- could it use an interior make-over and an avionics upgrade? Sure. But am I happy with the price and are the planes reliable and well-maintained? Yea.
The instructors are passionate and take your training as seriously. I have found each instructor I’ve flown and trained with to be knowledgeable and skilled and will get your through your ratings and certificates at a pace that’s comfortable for you, but I never found them to be a school that will nickel and dime.. or squeeze out additional time on the Hobbs. It’s also been nice seeing the same faces over the past 5 years I’ve flown from there. There isn’t too much turnover in regards to most schools now a days.
The airport itself is a fun challenge, given the location right on the edge of the FRZ( restricted flight zone around Washington, DC), and will keep you on your game, given shorter strip will keep. Not to mention that’s its fun to brag about from time to time. It will keep your Pilotage skills strong, as well.
All in all, it gets the job done. Check them out if you’re already a pilot and need a plane to rent or if you’re looking to start the journey of flight!

The maintenance shop did an excellent job. I now feel totally safe in an airplane that had several issues when they started the project. Thomas and Chris were fantastic to deal with, explaining each item in detail, and professionally fixing the issues on the airplane. Great airport and great people.

After moving flight schools from Potomac to here (for logistical reasons) I quickly came to like this airport. One upside is that despite how close it is to DC it is outside of the FRZ. When you’re in the pattern you have to be careful because this airport is essentially on the border of the FRZ, but as long as you follow the correct pattern procedures you’ll be completely fine. The runway is plenty long for normal takeoffs and landings and flying in the area is a one of a kind experience. Once you get to ~1000 feet you’ll see Andrews Air Force Base (and sometimes Air Force jets) a couple miles to your Southwest. If you have good eyes you’ll be able to see both DC and Baltimore as well. Heading out of the SFRA you’ll fly just past the Naval Academy and the Route 50 interchange. Would defiantly recommend stopping by this airport if you’re a pilot in the area or moving through. You will NOT need FRZ clearance to land or takeoff from here.

I got my husband an intro flight lesson (they have 30 and 60 minute options) for his birthday. Instructor was professional. Staff was friendly. We flew out towards Annapolis and my husband got to experiment with the controls and gain basic understanding of piloting. Very exciting and well worth it!

If you learn to land aircraft at Freeway Airport, you can land literally anywhere else. Great instructors, great owners, and a huge family of private aviators and commercial and military pilots that span decades.

Excellent place to learn to fly. Very friendly staff and instructors, fun aviation community, and fun planes to fly or just watch others take off and land. Highly recommended.

Loved my flight there. I was EXTREMELY nervous but the instructor made it seem like it was all good and eventually I relaxed and enjoyed the flight.

Friendly staff. Sawyer was very knowledgeable and gave a good refresher lesson. I had a good flight and look forward to more.

I fly here frequently, and have lived nearby for over 15years. I really enjoy all of the services Freeway offers and thankful for their training.

Fantastic little airport in a perfect place - please keep it open as so many other smaller airports are now closed due to urban sprawl!
