Bell Training AcademyFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Hurst, Texas

Bell Training Academy is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Bell Training Academy, 9601 Trinity Blvd in Hurst, Texas 76053, under air agency certificate FW8S153Q with location designator FW8S. The certificate holder's legal name is Bell Textron Inc; the FAA record carries the trading name Bell Training Academy. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Dallas-Fort Worth International (KDFW) at Dallas-Fort Worth, a towered field at 606 ft elevation, 10 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 10 miles from that field, so it may be an administrative or campus address rather than the ramp; ask the school where its training aircraft are actually based. 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 Aviator Air LLC in Grand Prairie, TX at 9.9 miles, followed by Illinois Aviation Academy, LLC in Grand Prairie at 9.9 miles. Texas has 74 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #2 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Fort Worth (9), Denison (4) and Waco (4). 4 of the Texas entries have no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.

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.
