We at Red Stewart Airfield, in Waynesville Ohio, are dedicated to the preservation of grass roots aviation. We fervently believe that by learning to fly in tailwheel airplanes you will become a better pilot in all aspects of your flying. The emphasis on  the 1930’s "stick and rudder" style of flight training, as well as the look and feel of the airfield, are geared to this mission. 

 Oh, did we also mention it's fun?

Red Stewart Airfield is a grass field airport that has been family owned and operated for three generations. Check out the history page to learn the story of Emerson "Red" Stewart and how the airport was started.

Stewarts Aircraft Service offers flight training and rides, in a variety of airplanes such as Piper Cubs, Aeronca Champs and a beautifully restored 1942 PT-17 Stearman biplane. In addition we have Cessna 150's, a 172, and a Piper Arrow for complex/commercial training. Glider training, aerial advertising and photos are offered as well.

For those of you who already have your certificates and would like to take your flying one step further we offer tailwheel endorsements, aerobatics and emergency maneuver training (EMT).
