Saint-Clair Lima da Silva
Director of Aviation Training
For over 25 years, I’ve devoted my life to excelling in aviation and guiding fellow pilots along the way. I started in single-engine props, progressed through multi-engine transports, and eventually mastered the advanced jets flying in today’s executive and commercial sectors. My military service took me around the globe—even Antarctica—flying humanitarian missions, disaster relief, special operations, and search-and-rescue. Later, I served as an instructor and test pilot at a leading aerospace company, responsible for crew training and helping shape advanced mission systems.
Teaching has always been my core passion. I’ve instructed at the United States Air Force Academy, served as the head of training in both military and civilian settings, and enhanced my expertise with a master’s degree plus additional post-graduate studies. Having faced the challenges of moving from propeller aircraft to modern jets, I understand the journey—and I’m here to make it smoother for you. At Precision Flight Institute, we blend real-world experience with innovative teaching methods, giving you the confidence, skills, and mindset to excel in any cockpit. Let’s take your aviation journey to new heights—together.
