Falcon Aviation Flight SchoolFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Niagara Falls, New York
Falcon Aviation Flight School is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 9700 Porter Road in Niagara Falls, New York 14304, under air agency certificate FAFS038M with location designator FAFS. The same certificate covers 2 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Niagara Falls site only; the 1 other location is listed below. The address falls in the Buffalo-Cheektowaga, NY metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Niagara Falls International (KIAG), a towered field at 592 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. The Census geocoder could not match the FAA street address to a rooftop, so this distance is measured from the 14304 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 3 other Part 141 locations; the closest is Falcon Aviation Flight School in Lancaster, NY at 21 miles, followed by Rochester Air Center LLC in Rochester at 65 miles. New York has 21 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #9 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Farmingdale (3), Ronkonkoma (2) and Ballston Spa (1).
The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (716) 409-0204, 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.
