Michel Vidal-Naquet

Michel’s passion for aviation probably began when, as a young child, he would travel from his native France to the United States for family visits. After settling in the San Francisco Bay area for work, he realized how accessible aviation was in the US and, in 2013, jumped onto the opportunity to start his aviation journey. Since then, he has flown extensively throughout California and adjacent states for various missions, such as aero-camping weekends, volunteer flights or sightseeing tours with friends and family. He is now happy to provide flight instruction, combining aviation with another passion of his: teaching. His goal is to help students acquire the skills and experience necessary to start them on their own aviation journey as safe, knowledgeable and competent pilots.
