We are a part 61 flight school located at Lakeview Airport (30F). We offer private pilot training, Instrument, and commercial pilot training.

Why Choose Us?
Pay-as-you-go flight training
No big upfront costs here. Our flexible, pay-as-you-go model makes it easier to start flying without the financial pressure. Financing options are available too – so you can train at your own pace, on your own terms.
Structured, high-quality instruction
We don’t just throw you in the cockpit and hope for the best. Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed, with a clear path from your first flight to your checkride. You’ll train with passionate instructors who are as invested in your success as you are.
Train at your own pace
We’re not here to rush you to a checkride you’re not ready for. Unlike larger schools that push one-size-fits-all timelines, we tailor training to your schedule and learning style. Whether you plan to fly several times a week or prefer a more gradual approach, we provide the flexibility and structure to support your goals.
No time wasted on the ground
We operate out of a private airport, which means you’re not stuck waiting in line behind a dozen other planes. Less time holding short = more time flying.
A convenient North Texas location
Based in Little Elm, TX, we’re a perfect fit for students in the DFW area looking for a nearby option that doesn’t sacrifice quality or convenience.
Fly beyond your license
Once you earn your private pilot certificate, our aircraft are available for rental – so you can keep building hours, confidence, and experience on your own schedule.
