Academy of Aviation has treated me very well, with lots of opportunities and professionalism.
AOA has been absolutely amazing to me, everyone is very friendly and the structured program is very good for brand new pilots.
Founded in 1998 by a passionate freelance instructor who believed in putting
students first - even driving them to and from lessons - the Academy of Aviation
was
built on heart, hustle, and a deep love for flight. What began as a one-man
operation quickly grew into a full-fledged school, rooted in personal attention,
innovation, and a mission to make aviation accessible to all.
Over the years, we've expanded with purpose - from FAA Part 141 certification
and
veteran training approvals, to strategic campuses across New York, North
Carolina, Georgia,
and
Florida. We've weathered industry challenges, built our own FAA-certified repair
station to keep costs low, and even helped manage and revitalize airports - all
while
staying true to our core values.
We became the first vocational flight school licensed by New York State, took
bold
steps during the pandemic to serve resilient aviation communities, and continue
leading the way with national and international accreditations. Every move we
make
is driven by one goal: student success.
Now as we look forward, we're reimagining flight training with immersive
experiences like our Atlanta-based Multi-Academy and Kissimmee's Instructor
Academy.
At Academy of Aviation, you're not just earning your wings - you're joining a
legacy
of excellence and a future built on community.
