Knoxville Flight Training Academy

★★★★★ 5 out of 5 a month ago

Everyone at Knoxville Flight Training Academy was very friendly and helpful. I called ahead of time to book a discover flight and spoke with Lindsey, who was able to give me information about how the flight worked and what to expect. Lindsey was also patient and willing to answer my questions. Upon arriving, everyone there was welcoming and was open to speaking with me about flying. My flight instructor was Jonathan. Jonathan was very knowledgeable, and was patient when teaching me about the entire process, from how to prepare the plane and check for safety prior to the flight, as well as during the flight and how to control the aircraft. I would recommend anyone who is either interested in exploring the Knoxville area from above, to anyone interested in being a pilot, and anyone in between, to check this flight school out.

My daughter wanted to do and exploreer fight so I scheduled it though Ben. So her and my wife went up and Jeremy was an awesome pilot who gave them a great flight. Thank you both Ben and Jeremy for giving them both a safe and fun flight, we will be back!

Student pilot here that was in town for the weekend and wanted to get up in the air and just see the area. Honestly from my very first phone call to them the entire staff was so incredibly kind. They were very accommodating and easy to schedule with. We went up with Faith in a c172. She was very easy to work with in the aircraft and I would greatly recommend her to any student looking for an instructor! I can’t wait to add this airport to my list of stops as I grow in to this new adventure!

I can’t say enough good things about this flight school. From my very first lesson, the instructors made me feel confident and supported every step of the way. They’re patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about helping each student succeed—not just in passing checkrides, but in becoming safe, skilled, and confident pilots. Every flight feels purposeful, and every instructor takes time to explain not just the “how,” but the “why,” which has made all the difference in my training. The whole team goes above and beyond—from the friendly staff to the well-maintained planes and organized scheduling. The environment is motivating, professional, and full of people who truly love aviation. You don’t just feel like a student here—you feel like part of a family. I’m so grateful to be training here and couldn’t imagine learning to fly anywhere else. ✈️
