Harford Air Services LLCFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Churchville, Maryland
Harford Air Services LLC is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 538 Aldino Road in Churchville, Maryland 21028, under air agency certificate 7HDS381C with location designator 7HDS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Harford County (0W3), a non-towered field at 412 ft elevation, 2.4 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 2.4 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 21028 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 Advanced Aviation Group LLC in Middle River, MD at 19 miles, followed by Brett Aviation Inc in Middle River at 19 miles. Maryland has 15 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #16 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Frederick (2), Gaithersburg (2) and Middle River (2).
The FAA record carries no agency phone, email or website for this location, so contact details have to come from the school directly. 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.
