Zachary Huston is an ATP-rated, 25-year veteran pilot with over 8,800 hours of flying experience, including over 4,200 hours in turboprops! His pilot career took off in 1998 when he was a freshman at Metropolitan State University of Denver. After graduating college and logging countless hours in the air, he’s discovered something he loved even more than flying—teaching others how to fly safely! While holding a full-time job at Jeppesen, he began instructing in the mornings and evenings, excited to pass on his knowledge to a new generation of exceptional, safety-minded pilots. In 2007, he was hired to fly and manage a TBM, and in 2011 he added Pilatus PC12 to his repertoire. By that time he’s logged thousands of hours of flying time in over 25 countries. In 2018, eager to fly jets, he took a job at Pinnacle Aviation based in Scottsdale, AZ. During his three and half years there, he logged an additional 1,400 hours in a CE-525 series aircraft and learned a tremendous amount about crewed cockpits, aviation safety and Part 135 operations. His true passion, however, remains unchanged to this day. He’s excited to see his client base and continue serving TBM communities by teaching and enhancing aviation safety.
