Los Angeles Flight School is a full-service pilot training academy based at Van Nuys Airport (KVNY), one of the busiest general aviation airports in the world and an ideal place to learn. We train students one-on-one, seven days a week from 9 AM to 9 PM, over the coastline, mountains, and skyline of Los Angeles.
Our mission
We turn first-time flyers into confident, safe, capable pilots — and we take career-track students all the way to the airlines. Every student is paired with a dedicated FAA-certified flight instructor who tailors the pace to your goals, schedule, and budget.
Why pilots choose Los Angeles Flight School
- One-on-one instruction with experienced, FAA-certified CFIs — not a rotating cast of teachers.
- A modern, glass-cockpit fleet, from the efficient Diamond DA20 to the high-performance Turbo Cirrus SR22, backed by a Redbird MCX full-motion simulator.
- Real-world airspace — training in the busy, towered environment at KVNY builds sharp radio work and decision-making faster than a quiet field.
- Transparent, fixed-price packages and flexible financing with no surprise costs.
Every rating, one flight school
Start with a discovery flight, earn your Private Pilot License, then add an Instrument Rating, a Commercial certificate, and instructor ratings — all the way to our Airline Pilot Program. New to all of this? Start with how to become a pilot.
