Jordon Triggs
I'm a passionate Certified Flight Instructor dedicated to instructing students. Unlike some instructors, I am not using instruction time to race towards the airlines. I look forward to working with, and sticking with you to achieve your goals. Instruction is a part-time job for me, I'm availble nights and weekends. Please reach out to discuss how we can attain your dreams of flight -- together.
I am currently looking for one or two more motivated students. I am both a CFI & CFII so can help you all the way up to CFII. You can reach me at 253-332-2901 or [email protected]

I am currently only accepting students for check outs, flight reviews and IPCs. I am no longer accepting students pursuing training towards a certificate or rating.
As a professional Flight instructor specializing in primary and instrument flight training, I have been very successful having both Private Pilot students and Instrument students pass their check ride flights in the minimum time required by the FAA. I have over 7,500 hours of flight time since earning my own Private Pilot Certificate in 1969 and have flown aircraft ranging from a Piper Cub on floats to an Air Force WC-135B (Boeing 707) Weather Reconnaissance aircraft.
As a former Air Force flight instructor and pilot examiner, and a University of Washington Aeronautical Engineer, I will make sure that you are fully prepared to be both safe and competent with the lowest possible expense. I keep a close eye on the bottom line: both the flying time (which translates directly into money) and your competence at safely maneuvering the airplane and meeting all the FAA requirements.
With almost 4,000 hours of instruction given, I can safely say that the biggest determining factor in how well you will do is how much studying you devote to learning the material prior to arriving for each lesson and in taking and passing the FAA’s knowledge test (aka the “written”) early in your training. That coupled with consistent lessons once or twice a week, is the real key to success. Getting along with your instructor is important, but your own drive to succeed is critical.
