LittleBrownDogAviation (LBD Aviation) was born out of a need to provide civilian flight instruction to transitioning military aviators into the airline industry. As a CFI, Luke instructed in a twin engine aircraft prepping candidates for passing the oral and flight portion of the ATP check ride. Since inception in 2017, LBD Aviation has morphed into a multifaceted operation. We still provide flight instruction on an individualized and tailored program to meet the needs of recurrent, upgrading or the general aviation needs of our customers. We also have a line of merchandise that we co-brand with other small business owners to promote their business online. We support local charitable organizations through public awareness. This is either through T-shirt or merchandise design or through direct charitable contributions. LBD Aviation is veteran owned and is proud to support other veteran or benevolent organizations. LBD Aviation is an advocate for normalizing and accepting mental health as a common, treatable, and non-stigmatizing part of human life.
