Our school is located at North East Philadelphia Airport, which has an operating control tower and two large runways.
We have an excellent tradition of producing safe pilots with a well-rounded understanding of Aviation. Hortman Aviation was founded by the late Capt. Norman Hortman (TWA 1938 - 1972) in the early 1940’s. The Hortman family has a rich aviation background starting with Norm, his brothers Herb (USAF Pilot), Robert (Flight Instructor, Crop Duster), his wife Yvette (Flight Instructor, kATP) and his sons Norman Jr. (Delta B737, Herb (Captain Continental B 757/767), Maggie Hortman (USAF C141/TWA 757/767 F/O Hortman Aviaiton CE560/560XL Captain), Walter (Pfizer G-IV), grandson Norman 3rd (Capt. Continental B737), and granddaughter Paige (Comair CRJ), and Walter’s son Cameron who is working on his certificates.
Training at Philadelphia Northeast Airport provides us the opprotunity to teach in a very complex airspace system that gives our students the experience of working with Air Traffic Controlers without being overwhelmed. Many student don’t receive this in their training and as a result are apprehensive of using the many services and the added safety ATC provides.
The school is a CFR Part 141/61, CDMS769C and M-1 Visa school. We have a sister company that Charters aircraft such as the Navajo Chieftain, Cheyenne III and Citation V. We have our own Maintenance Department to take care of our school’s, Charter department and private aircraft. The list goes on and on.
