AVweb‘s “FBO of the Week” ribbon goes to Amelia Reid Aviation at KRHV in San Jose, California.

AVweb reader Konstantin Blank recommended the FBO, citing the unique training experience:

Amelia Reid Aviation is a rare place where you get excellent flight instruction while connecting with the roots of aviation. While they instruct for all airplane ratings, the spcialty is in tailwheel aircraft … a place where hangar flying is a both a pleasure and valuable (non-loggable) flight experience. I recommend everyone get a tailwheel transition training here as it will be fun and make you a better pilot.

While tailwheel training isn’t on our list for this year, we’ll definitely spread the word. (And now we know a good FBO in San Jose to stop in on during our travels.)
