Veracity Aviation (Fort Worth)FAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Fort Worth, Texas
Veracity Aviation (Fort Worth) is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 2301 Horizon Drive in Fort Worth, Texas 76177, under air agency certificate V79S964K with location designator V71S. The same certificate covers 4 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Fort Worth site only; the 3 other locations are listed below. 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 Perot Field/Fort Worth Alliance (KAFW), a towered field at 723 ft elevation, 0.9 mile 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. With 4 public-use airports inside 10 miles, this is a dense training area where cross-country and pattern work at other fields is a short hop.
Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Tarrant County College in Fort Worth, TX at under 0.1 miles, followed by US Aviation Group LLC in Fort Worth at under 0.1 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 an agency email, derricksmith@veracityaviation.com, but no agency phone number 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.
