There are two types of people: Those who stay on the ground, and those who decide to fly. We know which one we’d rather be.

For Gavin, the journey to the cockpit began with a simple lesson. But today, the lesson was different. Today, the passenger seat was empty. Today, it was just Gavin and the sky.

There’s nothing like the moment a student completes that first flight on their own. It’s a testament to their dedication, countless hours of training, and the passion that fuels every aspiring pilot. At Race City Flight Operations, we don’t just teach people how to fly—we build pilots. This isn’t just about checking off boxes. It’s about instilling the knowledge, confidence, and discipline required to command an aircraft safely and competently. Peyton's successful solo flight is another example of our incredible track record of turning students into confident, capable aviators. We're obsessed with our students' success because it's a reflection of our commitment to excellence. From pre-flight checks to perfect landings, we’re with them every step of the way, providing the guidance and support needed to navigate the complexities of flight. Our instructors are more than just teachers; they're mentors who live and breathe aviation, dedicated to passing on their expertise and passion. Peyton's journey is just beginning, and we can’t wait to see him continue to soar to new heights. Watching him take off on his own, knowing he was equipped with everything he needed to succeed, was a truly special moment for our entire team. It reaffirms why we do what we do—to empower the next generation of pilots and help them achieve their dreams. The sky is the limit, and we’re here to help you get there. If you've ever dreamed of flying, there's no better time to start. Join the Race City Flight Operations family and become the next success story.

If you’re looking into learning how to fly I would recommend Race City 1000 times! Quality instruction, nice staff, and flexible scheduling. Thank you race city for making my student pilot journey fun!

Michael Nunez

I had my first discovery flight with Ethan and he was very knowledgeable and nice, and was very clear when teaching about the operations of the planes! 100% recommend

Jason Briggs

Awesome staff great experience on the discovery flight!!!!

Grace Li

I love race city flight operations!! Josh is a great instructor!

Mike Hege

Would highly recommend RaceCity 14A As a flight school and ground training! This is a family owned and operated business/flight school/FBO that you will not find anywhere quite like it. I did the back-to-back weekend course for the PPL ground school/written test prep. Overall, I’m very pleased and feel like it prepared me for both the test and an upcoming check ride. Patrick, Nicole, Josh and Kyle are amazing!

Michael Weeks

5 stars is not enough! The whole crew at RCFO is professional, friendly, and genuinely cares about your success as a student. Could not recommend them enough.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Race City Flight Operations is hands down the best flight school I have trained with. I have been to three different flight schools prior, and no one even comes close. Race City truly wants you to succeed. Their organization, knowledge, and attention to detail are the best I have ever seen. They have a clear structure and proven templates to follow that set you up for success instead of leaving you guessing. You always know what is expected and what the next step is. They also make you feel like part of their family, not just another student. Since switching to Race City, I have seen huge progress in both my flying skills and overall aviation knowledge. I honestly wish I would have started my training with them from day one. If you are serious about learning to fly and want a school that is fully invested in your success, this is the place to be. – Jacob
