Nexgen Flight Academy, LLCFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Lexington, Kentucky

Nexgen Flight Academy, LLC is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 4444 Gumbert Road, Suite B in Lexington, Kentucky 40510, under air agency certificate 3NXS084L with location designator 3NXS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Lexington-Fayette, KY metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Blue Grass (KLEX), a towered field at 980 ft elevation, 2.7 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 2.7 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. The Census geocoder could not match the FAA street address to a rooftop, so this distance is measured from the 40510 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. 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 Wings Flight Enterprises, Inc in Lexington, KY at 3.0 miles, followed by Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond at 27 miles. Kentucky has 4 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #39 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Lexington (2), Danville (1) and Richmond (1).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (859) 539-3172, and an agency email, dale@flynexgen.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.
