The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Richmond, VA metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Richmond International (KRIC) at Richmond, a towered field at 168 ft elevation, 3.7 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 3.7 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 23150 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 Hova Flight Services in Ashland, VA at 18 miles, followed by Rick Aviation Inc in Newport News at 49 miles. Virginia has 18 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #13 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Chesapeake (3), Fredericksburg (2) and Leesburg (2).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (804) 773-8584, and an agency email, josh@rvaflyers.com; it carries no website, so the contact details above are the only ones the FAA publishes 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.
