Citizenship Verification

If you are a US Citizen-go find your US Passport, and if you don’t have a US Passport, go find your birth certificate. We’ll need a USA birth certificate and a government photo ID, or a US Passport to verify your citizenship. Once you find that, Email us a picture of it to info@racecityfo.com so we can get started setting up your file!

If you’re not a US Citizen-you’ll need to review our Foreign National FAQ and get started on the TSA Verification.

Ground School

Time to figure out which ground school you’d like to take. There are lots of options when it comes to ground school. This is the foundational classroom knowledge you will need as a private pilot. There are options like King Schools, Fly8MA, or our own Race City Flight Operations course.

You need to pick a course that fits you and your schedule. The RCFO course is a hybrid online and in person course that includes all of the textbooks, materials and tools you’ll need to be a safe and competent pilot. Once you’ve watched the online RCFO videos, we will get together for a wrap up in person class to answer every question you have and get you prepared for the written test.
