Fly with us

We’ve been training pilots in Texas for more than 50 years, and we offer several key advantages. At TSTC, your classroom will be a dual runway airport with an operational control tower at the largest airport in the U.S. operated by an educational institution.

All of our instructors are certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). They bring high levels of professional aviation experience from civil and military backgrounds. Our airport and seasoned instructors will train you in:

  • Aviation Navigation and Meteorology
  • Propulsion Systems
  • Aerodynamics
  • Instruments
  • Commercial and Aviation Flight
  • Aviation Law

You can also choose to become certified as a flight instructor at the end of your degree.
