It Started with a Simple Conversation

It Started with a Simple Conversation

Our story began not in the cockpit, but with a simple, genuine conversation between our founder, Kyle, and his sister-in-law. After several talks about her fear of flying, he realized that for all the books and videos in the world, what nervous flyers truly needed was a direct connection to the person who knows aviation best. The idea for Dial a Pilot was born from a desire to bridge that gap, giving anxious travelers a trusted voice and a personal connection to the world of flying

It’s Not About What You Fly, It's About How You Think

It’s Not About What You Fly, It's About How You Think

Our Guiding Philosophy

Our Guiding Philosophy

We believe your fear isn't a condition to be treated, but a knowledge gap to be filled. When you learn to think like a pilot, you can reframe fear into trust.

The Founder

Meet Our Lead Pilot, Kyle Koukol

Dial A Pilot was founded in 2023 by Captain Kyle Koukol after recognizing a distinct lack of reliable fear-of-flying programs. Our vision is simple: connect you with the real people in the flight deck responsible for thousands of lives per week.

As a seasoned pilot, Kyle has a deep understanding of what happens at every stage of a flight. His passion for aviation goes beyond his role as a pilot. As the founder of Dial A Pilot, Kyle has extended his knowledge and love for flying to create a platform that helps nervous airline passengers overcome their anxiety. In his free time, you can also find Kyle golfing, skiing, hanging out at airshows, or spending time with his favorite passengers – his wife Madison and their golden retriever Winnie.
