A & M Aviation is one of the premier FBO's, flight training schools and flight clubs in Illinois. We are located in Bolingbrook, in the southwestern Chicago area. We are a family owned and operated service organization, and are dedicated to making sure that your aviation needs are met.

We have operated at Bolingbrook's Clow International Airport (1C5) since 1973, providing fixed wing airplane and helicopter flight instruction, airplane and helicopter rental and sales, FBO services, and aircraft charters. We are a Cessna Pilot Center. Located in Bolingbrook, we are convenient to the surrounding communities of Romeoville, Naperville, Joliet, Lockport, Plainfield, Lemont, and others in the Chicago area.

First Flight and Gift Certificates

A & M offers both Familiarization or Introductory Flights, where we take you up in an aircraft for the first time to show you what it's like with you at the controls, and Sightseeing Flights, where we'll fly you around the area showing you how wonderful it looks from the air!  No need to imagine a nice evening flight watching the sunset, or a view of the Chicago skyline from the sky; you can experience them yourself.

And this makes a perfect gift for that special someone, too, full of challenge, wonder, and adventure!   Perfect for the a birthday, holiday, or anytime! Just call us or stop in for more information!

Flight Instruction

Our FAA certified ground and flight instructors can help guide you through the challenges and opportunities in getting your airplane or helicopter pilot certificate, and can help you hone your skills through advanced and proficiency training. You can be a pilot! We offer introductory flights and gift certificates, so if you or a loved one is interested in getting started, stop on by!

Flying Club & Aircraft Rental

Unless you own your own plane, you'll probably need to rent one. We have a flight club that gives preferential rental rates, and also has periodic activities to keep you flying and having fun. Find out more about the cost savings, and see pictures from some of the trips we've taken across the country and in your own backyard.

Charter Flights

Sometimes you aren't interested in flying somewhere yourself, but want to take from one to six people quickly and efficiently, without a long drive or the interminable wait at the larger airports. A&M Aviation is affiliated with Better Living Aviation to help take care of these needs with our air taxi service.

Airplane and Helicopter Fleets

For both flight training and subsequent rental, we offer a varied fleet of aircraft from a variety of manufacturers. Whether you're looking for a classic light-sport tail-dragger or a serious twin, we have a plane for you. And for those who wish the freedom to go anywhere without even needing a runway, we have a helicopter, which can land almost anywhere!
