About Us
At Race City Flight Operations, we value high quality flight instruction over quick instruction. Race City Flight Operations works to improve, innovate, and make a better environment and training program for our students. Our goal is to help create pilots – whether you want to be an airline pilot or a hobby pilot-great and safe pilots instead of using the minimums as the completion standards. We believe, if they are taught to be great pilots, they will be safe and competent pilots months and years after their training.
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 & instructors from the 2024 Flight Training Experience Survey.
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.

Hurricane Helene: The staff, pilots, and volunteers at RCFO would like to thank everyone for the overwhelming support shown to the communities in Western NC. We are grateful to have been of service during these unfortunate circumstances and wish we could do more. Our hearts go out to the lives that have been lost and the homes that have been destroyed. While relief efforts are still ongoing, we will continue to pray for our neighbors and service members who are actively trying to rebuild what was lost. We are still working on dispersing what donations we have, but we wanted to take a moment to recognize the support we have received that allows us to continue fighting for our friends in the West. 💙❤️
