Welcome to Cindtronix Aviation!


The New Cindtronix News Portal. Welcome to Cindtronix Aviation! Here we will be sharing articles and news updates, from both Cindtronix's own instructors/students and throughout the aviation industry, that we feel may be worthwhile for you to read. Check back often for updates!
For our Skylane students... "If you fly behind a piston engine with a controllable-pitch propeller, the manifold pressure gauge plays an important part in the power settings you use. Few pilots, however, have any real understanding of what the instrument actually measures or what its readings truly signify." Read this column by AVweb's John Deakin (from AVweb.com).
We recently set up a live Air Traffic Control feed, hosted through LiveATC.net, to allow our students to practice listening to ATC communications at home and even review their last flights with the ATC archive. For more information, visit LiveATC.net and search for KOQU.
Getting a handle on aerodynamics doesn’t have to involve dry textbooks and dense equations. In this course, you’ll learn need-to-know concepts that will help you avoid unintentional stalls and spins (approx. 45-60 minutes). Take The Course

  • We all have dreamed of learning to fly. Perhaps you considered flight training, but didn't know how to begin. At Cindtronix Aviation, an official Cessna Pilot Center, we can help anyone attain the freedom of being a pilot.
  • We are New England's leading flight training school, based at both Quonset State Airport (OQU) in North Kingstown, Rhode Island & North Central State Airport (SFZ) in Smithfield, RI. Our experienced, FAA-certified flight instructors are dedicated to making your Cindtronix experience safe, affordable, and fun.
  • We are not your typical flight school. Our brand new Cessna fleet is equipped with G1000 "glass cockpits," the de facto standard in the flight training industry. Our instructors teach students from all flying backgrounds to use the G1000, and all agree - G1000 makes flying easier and safer than ever before.
  • It's time for you to experience the exhilaration of flight first-hand. If you're still unsure about getting started, the best way to begin is to take a discovery flight, during which you take the controls, and with the help of your instructor, take to the skies.
    Simply contact us at (401) 667-7580 to schedule your discovery flight, and let us bring out your inner pilot!
