Our Mission: To produce safer, more proficient pilots through specialized training of the highest quality.

The Flight Academy was formed in 2002 by Luke Lysen and John Fiscus to meet the need for skilled, specialized flight training in Cirrus aircraft nationwide. Our style of training takes advantage of full immersion allowing our clients to learn new skills and then cement them in place. Our versatility allows us to come to our clients, anywhere in the world.

Initially based out of Seattle, WA, the Flight Academy continues to grow and has incorporated bases in Las Vegas and Indianapolis. We are a Cirrus Standardized Training Center and an active, supporting members of the Cirrus Owners and Pilots Association (COPA). Our instructors are all high-time Cirrus pilots, personally vetted and trained by Luke and John, and represent some of the most skilled Cirrus experts in the world.
