Faithful Guardian AviationFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Atlanta, Georgia

Faithful Guardian Aviation is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Faithful Guardian Aviation, 3956 Aviation Circle NW in Atlanta, Georgia 30336, under air agency certificate 4FGS387C with location designator 4FGS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell, GA metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Fulton County Executive/Charlie Brown Field (KFTY), a towered field at 841 ft elevation, 0.3 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is on or beside the airfield, which is the usual arrangement for a Part 141 operation flying from its own ramp. It is the only public-use airport within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Quality Aviation Inc in Atlanta, GA at 14 miles, followed by Skybound Aviation in Atlanta at 14 miles. Georgia has 16 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #14 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Atlanta (3), Lawrenceville (2) and Peachtree City (2).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (770) 462-0049, and an agency email, lydon@fgtc.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.
