Central Flying Academy, LLCFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Little Rock, Arkansas

Central Flying Academy, LLC is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 2301 Crisp Drive in Little Rock, Arkansas 72202, under air agency certificate HBKS587E with location designator HBKS. The same certificate covers 2 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Little Rock site only; the 1 other location is listed below. The address falls in the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway, AR metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Bill and Hillary Clinton NTL/Adams Field (KLIT), a towered field at 266 ft elevation, 1.2 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.2 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. 2 public-use airports sit within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists 3 other Part 141 locations; the closest is Central Flying Service LLC in Conway, AR at 24 miles, followed by Arkansas Aviation Academy in Arkadelphia at 63 miles. Arkansas has 4 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #37 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Arkadelphia (1), Conway (1) and Little Rock (1).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (501) 975-9330, but no agency email or website 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.
