FLY8MA LLCFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Big Lake, Alaska

FLY8MA LLC is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 311 Kristen Ridge Circle in Big Lake, Alaska 99652, under air agency certificate FL8S076M with location designator FL8S. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Anchorage, AK metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Big Lake (PAGQ), a non-towered field at 162 ft elevation, 5.5 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 5.5 miles from that field, so it may be an administrative or campus address rather than the ramp; ask the school where its training aircraft are actually based. The Census geocoder could not match the FAA street address to a rooftop, so this distance is measured from the 99652 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. 2 public-use airports sit within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Alaska Flight Academy in Wasilla, AK at 15 miles, followed by Elmendorf Aero Club in Anchorage at 18 miles. Alaska has 8 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #25 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Anchorage (5), Big Lake (1) and Palmer (1).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (907) 268-3100, and an agency email, jon@fly8ma.com; it carries no website, so the contact details above are the only ones the FAA publishes for this location. Certification under Part 141 means the FAA has approved the school's training course outlines, facilities and chief-instructor arrangements and inspects them; it is not a quality ranking, and it does not by itself mean the school is VA-approved for GI Bill funding or accredited for federal student aid.
