Sporty’s and PilotWorkshops Join Forces

It has done so again. On February 3, the company announced its next chapter with the acquisition of PilotWorkshops, another industry leader in pilot proficiency material. 

“This partnership unites two organizations with a shared mission: to make flying safer, easier, and more enjoyable for pilots everywhere,” Sporty’s stated in a news release. 

Since 2005, over 200,000 pilots have utilized PilotWorkshops’ training materials, according to the release. This includes its online workshops and physical manuals aimed at ensuring pilots stay confident, safe, and proficient in the cockpit. 

Sporty’s states that PilotWorkshops’ customers can expect no change to prices or materials, and the PilotWorkshops’ team will remain the same. However, moving forward, customers can expect collaboration from the two entities and “innovative resources that build on our combined expertise, delivering the best possible training to pilots at all skill levels.” PilotWorkshops’ training materials can also now be found on Sportys.com

“PilotWorkshops was founded with the goal of helping pilots improve their skills and confidence,” said PilotWorkshops founder Mark Robidoux. “By teaming up with Sporty’s, we’re taking that mission to the next level. Together, we’ll expand our reach while maintaining the exceptional quality our customers have come to know and expect.”

Added Sporty’s president and CEO, John Zimmerman: “Sporty’s has always been about more than just products—we’re here to inspire and educate pilots. Our partnership with PilotWorkshops strengthens our commitment to aviation education. This is about building something bigger than the sum of its parts to benefit the entire aviation community.”
