About John

John grew up in the co-pilot’s seat of airplanes and flew solo before he learned to drive. (Hint: The right rudder pedal in cars doesn’t work like it’s supposed to.) He got his Private Pilot certificate in Houston, and his Instrument rating, Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor (including Instrument Instructor), and Ground Instructor certificates in the Dallas area. He’s done most of his flying in Texas, but also some in the Northern Virginia and Los Angeles areas. In addition to flying with Above & Beyond, John is finishing his Ph.D. in computer science at UT Austin. At UT, he performs research on programming languages. Also at UT, he has taught computer science, which he enjoys teaching almost as much as flight instruction. Prior to UT, John was an information technology (IT) engineer, consultant, and program manager.

"When visiting an Austin area friend from out of town, I came especially to Above & Beyond Aviation for flight training. My instructors, George and Barb, personallytailored my flight training to me as an individual, made my first solo most enjoyable & memorable and prepared me for my private pilot license.” Tammy

“I’ve been flying Above and Beyond planes for two years. They are the most economical way to fly in the Austin area. With four planes, there’s almost always a plane available when I want it. The Above and Beyond planes are the best game in town for time builders and student pilots.” Chip Freitag

“I rented Above & Beyond’s airplanes through UT Austin’s University Flying Club; I have flown all four. I flew about 60 hours in 2004 in N4951A for my private pilot training, and just a couple hours in N67796 because back then it wasn’t owned by the club yet. I added about another 60 hours in N733CP in 2006 for my instrument training. After I finished my instrument training I flew N413ES almost exclusively because though it’s a bit more expensive, it’s the newest plane in the fleet, very clean, perfect for taking friends on tours and impressing them. Overall, these arevery dependable airplanes. I never had any real issues besides small squawks. I obtained 2 pilot ratings through Above & Beyond, with George Farris as my primary instructor for my instrument rating. I can’t thank George Farris enough. If I hadn’t moved to California I would continue to fly with George and his company’s planes.” Kuangwei Hwang
