Best Hang Gliding Center Fort Wayne Near Me

Joseph Lefevra: Best experience i have ever had a surprise anniversary dinner planed for wife in indy at ricks boat yard. Rachel and pilot Andrew awesome I will recommend flying again with them they made all arrangements was easy thanks again to sweet aviation

Réna Bradley: My discovery flight with Josh was an amazing experience. The facility was modern and clean and Josh was patient and encouraging throughout my visit. Highly recommend!

Michelle Layos: Michael, along with the whole Sweet staff, have been extremely friendly and professional to work with. Our daughter has done a helicopter discovery flight & we’ve had informative meetings about career/study options. Our daughter has decided to pursue a career in aviation and plans to study for her Associate in Aviation through the Sweet/Ivy Tech partnership this fall.Sweet Aviation, we appreciate you!! ✈️

Jesse Holt: My wife was sold a ground school package without being properly educated on what all the packge included and what all flight training requires. She was sold the $500 package, and when she asked what all the package covered, was assured this included everything necessary to get your license. She in turn gave this as a Christmas gift, under the impression that she had paid for a full flight training course, in-cockpit flying lessons included, and explained as much to the gift recipient, myself. At the same time, I discovered my 2:30 onboarding was on the calendar for 2, so i was very late, then discovered that the trainer with whom I had scheduled my first in-cockpit lesson had forgotten to actually reserve me spot on the day in question in his calendar and I would have to reschedule as well. Not exactly pleased to have been forgotten about so soon.Upon discovering this, I attempted to withdraw and get a refund, as I both did not have the time nor funds to take a complete flight training course. I was informed withdrawing and a refund was not possible, and the $500 fee would allow me to attend ground school with Sweet at any time in the future. This is not a service I care to utilize, nor need. I was told there are are other ways to pay for flight lessons, the actual flying part of flight training and given a flyer. The flyer advertised US military GI Bill tuition assistance, something I had looked into some years ago and was waiting for the option before I took lessons on my own apart from my wife's gift, as a possible option for payment. This was not true also. When I spoke to Joel he mentioned some difficulties getting GI Bill approval and there was some confusion as to whether or not they had received proper approval when the flyer was printed. I feel this was false advertising. My accusation of which is probably what warranted Joel's response in the first place.Most upsetting, and the reason for the poor public review beyond simply the poor treatment of my wife and the misleading flyer, is while I was present and considering my next step, I overheard a Sweet employee explain to a customer that Sweet Aviation personnel are instructed to be very clear and up front with pricing and the full costs of getting a license because they specifically want to avoid situations like what happened with my wife: paying for a package without understanding fully what that package includes. Well, they failed here.Unable to withdraw and having already received the Gleim Flight Training Kit, which is both significantly cheaper than Sweet's ground school and fulfills the same requirement for written license testing, I chose to continue attending, hopefully to still learn something. I found that the instructors were all recent college grads attempting to get their necessary instructor hours to go pro by working here but not terribly interested in being teachers. The slide shows presented at each session didn't match the handout. Finally, the last 2 sessions are supposed to be dedicated to studying for the written exam. Instead, at the 11th session we took a practice test and then were dismissed 2 hours before the class was supposed to end. When I attempted to ask for assistance in the areas I was weakest in, I was told to "study harder." I did not attend the 12th session. No one at Sweet appeared to notice.What I wanted was the Christmas gift my wife INTENDED for me and not the deception she was sold. What I want now the most, instead, is my 31 of 36 hours, 11 of my Saturday mornings, back. After I spoke to Joel, I expressed my disappointment in the customer service and advertising my wife and I experienced. As it stands, I received a refund. I also received a letter from the head of the school apologizing. And a headlamp for reading in the cockpit in the dark, for some reason. Honestly, regardless of the intent behind the "gift", I found that to be most insulting. There is nothing Sweet can do to fix this for me, it has left a terrible taste in my mouth regarding the whole facility, and the paltry handout just feels condescending.

Drew: Simply put, some of the most professional helicopter pilots I have ever met. They were courteous and professional from the beginning to the end. I would highly recommend them for your flight training.

Nate Searcy: Great friendly staff. All around a group of people that will go above and beyond to help you. Thanks Sweet Aviation.

Sandy Tina: Most of their Diamond DA-20 fleet are broken ( N476DC, N233ND, N660DC, N107TX...). Many of them, the GPS don't work, the VOR is inaccurate, the installed compass error is too high, more than 30 degree in unaccelerated condition. I almost lost in flight from KY when flew back to KSMD because none of navigation system was available or accurate to work.I tried to put the swak code and told their staffs but it doesn't work. Why don't you guys spend money to fix the instruments instead of spending money on social media ? I have sent the report to FAA, hope that they will come to inspect your DA 20 fleets.

the Nolt Girls: EXCELLENCE ON EVERY LEVEL!!

Don Marqueling: Great building, beautiful planes and helos. Friendly. I was attending a presentation of the F100 fighter. Nice hanger .

Anshuman Mihir: It's a great place to learn. Every one has been super helpful and very friendly

Lance Glander: Knowledgeable and professional staff with exceptional service. Friendly and welcoming environment.

Stacy Girod: Flying is definitely not my thing so when I found out my boss booked a private plane to take me and my coworkers to a training I panicked for sure!Andrew was fantastic! He was confident in a good way and talked through everything as it was going on. I knew we were in capable hands.The plane had snacks and waters which were a nice surprise...When we arrived at our location he walked us through the airport and waited outside with us until our ride arrived. Definitely overdelivered!Shockingly I can honestly say I would not hesitate to jump in a plane with Andrew and Sweet Aviation again!

Richard Murray: They live service. Great facilities.

C Weaver: Everyone that we encountered was great. The whole experience was beyond what we expected.

Autumn Gold: I needed to get some pictures of a specific airplane they have for a mini model that I was having custom made for a friend, Mike Brewer went above and beyond to help me obtain these pictures even though he had no obligation to do so, as I am not a customer or student here.

SRH: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ValueWent for a stunt ride. Wow! Fantastic safe experience. Thanks again for making it such a great time! My pilot was great! The aircraft was super clean and well maintained as was everything else i saw.

Allen Johnson: Had a great discovery flight today. The facility, experience, and instructor Alex were excellent. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to learn how to fly or to enjoy the rare opportunity to see Fort Wayne from a different perspective. It was amazing! Thanks to my wife for the wonderful birthday surprise and Sweetwater for the wonderful experience.

Patricia Trowbridge: It was amazing

Yutian Wu: Professional service, reasonable price, great perple!

Steve Slobodzian: Birthday gift got me into a helicopter flight round the city. I even got to fly and hover.tons of fun would recommend

sandra webb: Couldn't find what we were looking for

Gage Girvin: This is a horrible location that is horribly mismanaged and let's it's loss prevention team run rampant and accuse//chase//harass innocent customers into never wanting to come back. Never shopping with this establishment again.

Charity Sullivan: Not very clean.Always out of product. Never any cashiers.

Jared Poiry: It was nice swinging through here, although the staffing is very sparse.. or so I thought, some of the employees just kind of hide. Good experience nonetheless.

Amy Plummer: Great prices

frederick vannatter: In and out should be open later

Kellie Huffman: Good

Rene Stanley: This is my favorite Walmart anywhere!

james washington: They have a little bit of everything in there

Doris Hickey: I gave 4 stars cause it didn't have everything

Mario W: Clean store and well stocked with items. Did not see any empty shelves. Other Walmart needs to follow this one to be like them.

Jake Donaldson: What can you say it's walmart

Christine Rost: I do not recommend this location for automotive care do to extremely poor customer service. While discussing which tires and services we wanted to purchase the employee detailed what charges were on the screen, that the cost was 573.88 before tax, and we were fine with this. We gave them the lug nut unlocked and got our ticket. We walked around for about an hour and half, which was expected and even purchased a new video game. At pickup time there was an additional labor charge of $26.26 that was not previously discussed at all. I asked to speak to a manager and was denied because there was nothing they could do. I stated that I am going to pay this as the work has been done, however this charge should have been discussed in the itemized detail of work to be done before hand. And if the amount of the labor charge wouldn't be known until the end then she would have said there is also this charge, but we won't know how much it will be until they complete the work which is also fine and understandable. I put every additional item back as I refuse to spend money at a location where the customer service is so poor they can't apologize for a simple mistake, because that is all it was, and they went thew out glove box as the lug nut unlocked was not in the seat like they said they left it but deep in our glove box for a unknown reason.

Brandon Sprague: Store was messy

Barbara Sullivan: Fantastic. Lots of clearance items right now

Michele Carroll: It's a Walmart. What's there to say?

Tommy Jackson: They keep all of the electronics locked up like it’s the ghetto, but they don’t staff anyone to unlock the cabinets.

Jeffrey Ridley jr: Provides a great shopping place to be.

Jack Wilson: Good service from employees

George Goodson-Walker: Always get in and out in a good time

Larry Richwine: Good place to shop !!

Michae'l House: It's Walmart! The poor man's Mall!! Lol

J Wiley: This is the absolute WORST customer service walmart in Fort Wayne. If you have a choice to drive 20 minutes to Jefferson Pointe or up on Coldwater, do yourself a favor.

Rosie West: Let me just start by saying if you plan to go actual grocery shopping for more than a couple item don't shop of the evening. I was unaware that this store has No regular lanes after 8pm! So as I'm going to check out a total 148 items which was a total nightmare! Every 3 items it would call for assistance . Then as I finally finished which took around 50mins or maybe longer, I went to scan a coupon,it says rejected so I called for the assistance associate, she says it's saying it's not showing you purchased what the coupon is for. I had purchased the Jergens natural glow lotion, same type as on coupon (it was a clearance item), associate states that's why it's due to it being clearance, so I just paid and left store.So Walmart I read the fine print it states NO where on this coupon about combining with any other offers! It was only a 1.50 coupon, but this coupon was the only reason I was purchasing this item tho! Walmart you need to get this issue fixed either let us use the coupons or inform the coupon distributors your policy.

Trev0r98: well-rounded store, neat & clean. Courteous & knowledgeable staff

Royce Caswell: I hate walmart

Bobbi Whitfield: Let's u shop and does not bother you.

Andrew Lomont: Love so good ol KFC. The service was great, fast and friendly. I am a fan of their chicken pot pie, famous chicken bowls, and their chicken little sliders.🤤

Linna Lucas: We shop Wal-Mart for everything!

Mario W: The store was cleaner than other Walmart stores I've been in. It seemed to be well stocked with items and vegetables also.The Walmart in Sturgis Michigan needs alot of help or catching up to be as well stocked and as clean as this one. Walmart needs mystery shopper's to go to the different stores and make notes on the cleanliness, how well the store is stocked etc...

Chenitta Hill: Love wally world

Louise Leistman: My go to shopping place.❤❤❤

Jose Bernal: They got everything we need at affordable prices just wish they still did price match

Quala Horne: Walmart really should get the discount card like Kroger's..it makes our life a little better to see we are saving money somewhere

Jeffrey Ridley jr: Spacious and clean environment, thanx.

Naga Rama Chandra Rao Srirangam: Good store

James Prough: Got replacement tire. Quick job except cashing out. 1 person doing 5 jobs. JP

Deuwayne Metz: This store has friendly employees that are very helpful when needed.

Breain: I love WALMART.... this one just follows ppl to much... if u drop ur car off for service and have an hr or 2 to kill don't walk around there it's like ya done something wrong...

Jack Wilson: Awesome

christina robey: Great craft place for what I needed. Also they still have thing too play pool, got a new stick and its the best one I own now.

CODY HARDING: No cameras in parking lot to protect customers or their cars but thousands inside to protect their profits. Walmart cares

Roven Odom: Great able to locate and get everything that was needed

Lisa Kennerk: Do not like the fact that they only have 2 lanes open with a cashier.I do not work for Walmart and should not have to ring up or bag my items.

Blair Hess Jr.: While difficult to rate a "mass merchant", the welcome you receive when entering is great! Some departments were lacking staff while others were at best adequate. If your looking for fragrances in "wax melts" their selection is outstanding. The garden department had no help to be found but it was on a Sunday, we must give them the benefit of the doubt!

GT Riegling Jr: It's WalMart land of the Self Check Outs. More Self check out open then employees in the store.

Manuel Flores: Es muy fácil de encontrar todo lo que uno ocupa

sarah d: A lot of variety and a lot of good products. Was an extremely big Walmart compared to the ones I’ve been to.

Unicorn Sprinkles: I was in and out fairly easy! It'd be NICE THOUGH TO HAVE LANES OPEN WITH ACTUAL EMPLOYEE'S WORKING THE CHECK OUTS THOUGH!!!! it's pretty daunting being DISABLED, FULL CART, AND NO ASSOCIATE AT A CHECK OUT!!!! COME ON WALMART...YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS!!!

Gene Herberger: I walked 500 steps

Susan Workman: Walmart Supercenter is a very nice place to go shopping. The prices are fair on their clothing , and their food section.

Raul Espinosa: 😃👍

Gage Girvin: Horribly shady business that let's it's mismanaged loss prevention team, openly harass innocent customers and even takes pictures of people on their personal cell phones. Horribly disgusted with the ethics of this company and won't be back.

Jason Overman: They always do great here! Good job guys!!

David Current: Regular Walmart but no automotive center.

Peggy Hough: Great place to shop.

Shawn Love: I love the Fort Wayne Walmarts they have a much better selection then our home town. Clothes, organizing options way better then our town 40 minutes away.

Sir CES: This is the dirtiest Walmart in Fort Wayne. You are better to shop at one of the other four Walmarts or just go down the street to Meijer's.

Mario W: Well stocked and clean. Better than other Walmart I've been in.

Unicorn Sprinkles: The prices are continuing to rise drastically here...also NO LANES OPEN WITH AN ASSOCIATE WORKING THEM!!!! SO I SHOPPED, CHECKED MYSELF OUT, AND BAGGED MY GROCERIES.WHERE'S MY PAYCHECK AT WALMART??????????????????

D Andrew: Walmart and I have a love/hate relationship. I'd like for walmart to be a bit more exclusive in our relationship but everytime I visit there just so happens to be everyone and their mother in my way. A bit frustrating but wally ALWAYS has what I need for the best price.

Janice Carson: I always have a good experience when I go to Walmart

wedge hendrickson: Only complaint I have is they close at 11 still.. And if it's close to 11pm.. Like 10:45pm.. They won't let you in...

Brüçê Hëäth: Normal grocery shopping

Jan: Lots of clearance items right now! Pretty large selection of just about everything. Dog food remains in/out of stock. This appears true of any Walmart. Mid day, middle of the week will help mainstream your visit with open checkouts.

Rosemary Turnbull: Clean, fresh atmosphere

Daniel Musser: The store is good but the automotive center don’t even waste your time. Took a vehicle in to get a tire repair today was told it was unrepairable. There was a nail in the center of the treads in the center of the tire. I took it to Belle tire. They had it fixed in under an hour. While at Belle tire got a diagnostics alert from the vehicle, saying the tire was flat because they took it off the rim and looked. Did not get that at Walmart.

Si Aung: Opening schedule 7:00AM the door is open 7:20AM and associates came to service desk at 7:30AM. Two of the tires changed almost four hours waiting.

Rebecca Venters: This Walmart is very popular. Lines are long but checkout is fast. The other Walmarts in Fort Wayne usually don't have much but the super center has all your needs.

Hank Ochoa: Love going to Walmart in Auburn. They need to do a little better job up front with cashiers. Meat selection is fair, but Auburn don't carry what Fort Wayne Walmart does when it comes to sandwich meat.

Royce Caswell: Hate walmart

Caroline Sizelove: Hard to find assistance when needed. Slow response when you do request assistance.

Christian Rivera: The space is set up nicely so you can walk around ok. Checkouts are usually fast. I just can never find everything you would think you can find at a Walmart sometimes. For example: I have gone there to get wax warmer light bulbs and they seem to be out all the time.

John Yacks: No help on the floor.I rarely go to any Walmart. I haven't been able to find the Dial bar soap in the glycerin bars. So I thought I'd give this place a look. They don't have it either.

Amal Waggoner: The Lima St store is not as nice as some of the others. Staff was ok. Sales were few & aisles were full of stuff 2 b put away.

Sabra Omerovic: I came here for a simple oil change and spent the last 2 and a half hrs waiting on my car. In the middle of it they called me to tell me the oil I chose “ran out” and I would have to pay extra to get the one from the bottle. Didn’t receive good servings, as a matter of fact, they should have kept an eye on their reservoir and told me the oil I chose wouldn’t be enough before they took my car back. They did end up not charging me after I spoke and explained the situation to the manager, due to that not being my problem they ran out of the oil in the first place.

M O: Two and a half hours for oil change. Not doing oil change here again.

jensen chaney: Walmart hasn't let me down yet. I'd what location I go to.

Robert Clawson: Bought tires and got me right in didn't have to make a appointment to get them put on. Didn't take very long.

Pizza Man: Never a cashier. Low quality items. The fast food of retail. You get what u pay for

Rumi Petty: Ok

Jeremy Spray: The bakery is nothing special. It's mostly shipped in nothing baked on site. Overall Walmart it's a good store.👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁. Same old Walmart just like any other one nothing special.

Amy Campbell: Prices keep rising everywhere. They are doing a good job

Jan: If you're looking for inexpensive scrubs, there isn't much of a selection. Nothing is organized by size, color OR style. It's like digging through a laundry basket.

Ward Lewis: I found some great buys in clearance section.

leighton leeper: The store was clean. The greeter was friendly. Self checkout went well.

Wayne Johnson: It's walmart what do you expect?

beverly gunion: It's a Wal-Mart what's to say

Christina Gibson: This is the only Wally world my husband will shop for food. That says a lot because he is not a fan of big box stores. Everything is typically always available. The store isn't crowded. It's clean. The staff however just never seem like they are up for a hello.

Jacob Ford: They treated me like a thief. Every time I go I pay for everything, their workers helped me at the self checkout only to immediately ask me for my receipt upon leaving, which you aren't required to show. Try getting the actual shoplifters.

Joe Kocks: Picked up what I needed good price

Manoj Kumar: It’s all mart..

Ken Miller: Low prices

Alister Hile: They won't put out their little carts. I buy less stuff almost every time because I hate the huge carts. So obnoxious.

Momo Washington: I love this Walmart. I found everything that I needed for half the price.

Benjamin M: It is a typical Walmart.

Kim Dick: Great place to shop

Emily Strack: Great job

Shannon Isom: Usually bathrooms are nasty but lately they have been cleaned properly and consistently and smell so much tolerable.
