About Us
Welcome to Alto Flight Academy, where dreams take flight. Founded and operated by Hal Harris and his family, our academy is rooted in a love for aviation that spans generations. Hal, a seasoned Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) and jet pilot with a Citation type rating, has been sharing his passion for flying with aspiring pilots for over 30 years. His dedication to aviation is matched by his wife, MariCris, and their daughter, Grace, who both contribute their unique talents and enthusiasm to our family run school.
At Alto Flight Academy, we believe that the sky is not the limit but just the beginning. Our journey began with Hal’s childhood dream of flight, nurtured by his father’s own love for the skies.
