Mooresville, NC – Race City Flight Operations has been recognized for its high standard of accomplishment in flight training by The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), the world’s largest aviation association. Race City Flight Operations has been awarded a spot on the Flight Training Experience Awards as a Distinguished Flight School; a title given to high scoring flight schools from the 2024 Flight Training Experience Survey.

The Flight Training Experience Survey was created to highlight the best flight training the industry has to offer. “Successful flight training is about more than just learning to fly. Building a sense of community to support the people who are learning takes the experience to a much higher level where they can excel. This year’s instructors and schools have clearly brought their customers into the pilot community,” said AOPA Foundation Sr. Director Flight Training Education Chris Moser.

Race City Flight Operations, established in 2015, is one of a small number of flight schools in the country to provide both a Part 61 & Part 141 flight training program. Race City is headquartered in Mooresville, NC at the Lake Norman Airpark and has a second location at the Statesville Regional Airport. We currently operate 10 aircraft with 10 flight instructors on staff. All of our aircraft are maintained by our in-house maintenance shop which helps minimize downtime and ensures availability for our students.

The 2024 awards were drawn from flight students and pilots who voluntarily reviewed their flight training experience this past fall through an AOPA online customer satisfaction survey. The process yielded an evaluation of 780 different flight schools and 1,202 individual flight instructors. Learn more: www.aopa.org/FTawards
