Welcome to Tailwheel Adventures!
Let's meet the fleet & crew.
The Crew
Our owner and Chief Pilot, Kevin Garcia, has been flying since he was 15 years old. He soloed at 16 and earned his Private Pilot License at 17. Once he discovered tailwheel and aerobatic flying it changed his life forever. He, with the help of his best friend Geoff, started Tailwheel Adventures to share his passion for flying with anyone willing to learn.
Tailwheel Adventures is currently looking for another CFI to help with flight and ground instruction duties: apply today!
The Fleet
Tailwheel Adventures currently has two beautiful 7-KCAB Citabrias and a 7-GCBC. The 7-KCAB Citabria has a Lycoming AEIO-320 engine, which produces 160hp. The power-to-weight ratio on this airplane is excellent!
