It started with Mr. Yatsuharu Yokota’s passion for RC Planes (Remote Controlled) where he controlled the movement and direction of the plane using a remote control. His love for airplanes did not stop there because when a friend invited him to ride a man controlled plane, he didn’t realize the fun and excitement that comes from riding and controlling the plane until then. He went to aviation school and was able to get his license using Cessna 150 and finally he bought his first plane, Cessna 172 XP. He love flying so
 

much that he bought Cessna 150 , Cessna 210 Centurion, Beechcraft Bonanza 33-C and Piper Navajo PA-31 and by that time he already have his own hangar.

He realizes that his passion for airplanes could turn into a very profitable one. He hired very competent pilots and aircraft mechanics to help him. Capt. Jerry E. Perlada, Flight Operation Manager and Agripino Tanguin, Chief Aircraft Mechanic worked hand in hand to help with the establishment of the school. Securities and Exchange Commission granted Yokota Aviation Inc. a registration certificate last April 22, 2002 and Air Transportation Office also granted Air Agency Certificate last June 4, 2002.

Presently Yokota Aviation has 14 fleets of aircrafts and 4 Pilots/Instructors, 4 Aircraft Mechanics, 1 Building Maintenance, 1 Military Police and On-the-job-trainees.

Since Mr. Yokota has a very futuristic goal for Yokota Aviation Inc. he made an additional facility which is the Yokota Airplace that has finished on the end of March, 2003. This facility will cater for the board and lodging of future foreign and local students.
