Mark Mizrahi
Mark first soloed at age 17, received his Private Pilot License at age 19, and his Commercial, Instrument, Multi Engine and Seaplane ratings followed. His passion for sharing, communicating and teaching led him to the Certified Flight Instructor Ratings. He was a Ferry Pilot for Piper Aircraft Sales and as a FAR 135 Charter Pilot flew many types of twin engine aircraft. His love of Amphibious Operations led him to flying the Cessna 208 Caravan from the East River in NYC to destinations in the Northeast. Currently he prefers to fly the SR-20, SR-22 and he is also ATP - Jet Typed in the Cirrus SF-50 Vision Jet. Aerodynamic efficiency, comfort and, most importantly, the safety of the Cirrus, has not been matched by any other manufacturer.
