Welcome to Icarus Time Building & Rentals
The story of Icarus comes from Greek mythology. Icarus and his father, Daedalus, were imprisoned in a labyrinth by King Minos of Crete. To escape, Daedalus crafted two pairs of wings made of feathers and wax. Before flying, Daedalus warned his son not to fly too close to the sun or the sea. However, in his excitement, Icarus ignored his father's advice, flying higher and higher until the heat from the sun melted the wax on his wings. As a result, Icarus fell into the sea and drowned.
Moral: Always listen to your flight instructor! Just like Icarus, ignoring expert guidance can lead to dangerous consequences. Trusting your instructor’s experience and advice can help keep you safe and ensure a successful flight.

I am excited to bring Icarus to you.
In 2020, my passion for aviation led me to Middle Tennessee State University, where I began pursuing my dream of becoming a pilot. After completing their Professional Pilot Program, I realized that building flight hours—one of the biggest hurdles for aspiring pilots—is often the toughest challenge. This inspired me to create Icarus, a company dedicated to supporting pilots in three key areas: time building, flight instruction, and aircraft rentals. By providing high-quality flight instruction, a fleet of reliable aircraft, and cost-effective ways to build flight hours, I aim to help pilots at all levels achieve their goals.
In December 2024, I earned a Master of Science in Aviation Management, which complements my 8 years of experience as an avionics technician in the Army, where I attained the rank of Staff Sergeant (SSG).
As a father of six and a husband, I understand the importance of dedication, hard work, and balance, both in life and in aviation. At Icarus, we are committed to providing top-tier flight instruction in a supportive, professional environment, while ensuring that our students and clients have the resources they need to succeed. Whether you’re building time, looking for quality instruction, or renting aircraft, I’m excited to be a part of your aviation journey.
