The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Fort Meade Executive (KFME) at Fort Meade (Odenton), a non-towered field at 150 ft elevation, 0.4 miles from the school's listed address.

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (410) 672-0080, 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.
