Discounts for Clemson students, employees, and ROTC cadets Cadet flight block: 10 hrs + instruction, $2,000 →
Upstate Flight School is a small, personal flight training operation at Oconee County Airport (KCEU) in Seneca, South Carolina, five minutes from Clemson University. We train pilots from first Discovery Flight through the Commercial certificate, run recurrent safety training for owner-pilots, and offer complex and high-performance endorsements in a SIAI Marchetti S.205, a former Italian Air Force trainer.
Small operation, well-maintained airplanes, and one instructor. Winston Tripp teaches every lesson himself, so the person who takes you up on your discovery flight is the one who signs you off for your checkride.
