Pilot Rise Flight School - Fort Worth, Texas

I highly recommend Pilot Rise as a flight school! Their facilities, well-maintained aircraft, and supportive staff created an excellent environment for learning. From the start, I felt confident I was in good hands.

A huge part of my success was thanks to my amazing flight instructor, Ricky. He was patient, knowledgeable, and had a great way of simplifying even the most complex concepts. Ricky’s emphasis on safety and building my confidence made all the difference. With his guidance, I passed my private pilot checkride! If you’re considering flight training, Pilot Rise and Ricky are the way to go.

I started with Pilot Rise after searching for other flight schools in the area. Unlike those other schools, Pilot Rise isn't a factory focused on churning out pilots with instructors that are more concerned with reaching ATP minimums.

I flew with Carson, the Chief Instructor, Ricky, the Assistand Chief, Jordan, Eli, and two other instructors that moved on to other ventures. All of the instructors make sure you as a student are learning and retaining the knowledge necessary to safely fly a plane and by doing so, you are well prepared to complete your FAA check ride.

I earned my PPL after taking my lessons with Pilot Rise and I have and will continue to recommend them for people looking to get ratings through a Part 61 program.

I am currently flying with Pilot Rise as a student and I can tell you this is definitely the school for you if you want to get into Aviation. Carson Trummel has been my instructor for a little over 8 months and has been very helpful and supportive with my training process. He is very flexible with the time slots and is very knowledgeable about flying. I look forward to receiving my certifications through this school in the coming years.

After 13 years of wanting to fly, I finally decided to go for it this last year. I was looking for schools that would fit around my schedule with work and kids schedules. We live right next to hicks so I decided to give pilot rise a try. Jordan was my instructor and really taught me everything I needed to know to pass my checkride and get my PPL. He was very responsive when I needed to get a hold of him and he showed up to every lesson we had scheduled. I was not the easiest to teach at times as it took me a little longer to pick things up but he was very patient and gave me the confidence I have in my flying now. I’m excited to move on to the next step and thank you to all instructors involved in me becoming a pilot.

I wouldn’t be an airline pilot without this flight school.

I stumbled my way through a couple different instructors for years until I finally found this school. A place that wasn’t trying to charge me an arm, leg, or my first born to fly and get instruction.

Not only was the school fairly priced, but the instructors actually cared and followed a syllabus. So if I ever flew with different instructors it wasn’t like starting at square 1 again.

Getting in and out is super easy since it’s not towered, but also It’s right next to a bunch of towered airports when you need them for training. Practice area is right across Eagle Mt Lake. And the view right there with the water is great! Especially if you catch it at sunrise or sunset.

I did my private, instrument, and commercial with Pilot Rise. I wish I would’ve found them sooner. Could’ve saved me a lot of headaches, money, and restarts.

Thanks again Pilot Rise

Pilot Rise has been great for me, I highly recommend it! My instructor, Ricky, is super knowledgeable and helpful. He pushed me way beyond simply passing the Private Pilot exams and checkride. He helped me truly understand the material and become the most proficient and safe pilot I can be. All of the instructors here are great, and I’m super grateful to have gotten my PPL here. Now I’m working with Ricky on my Instrument rating, it’s truly a one stop shop! Book a discovery flight here, you won’t regret it!

A great school! I did my Private Pilot training there with Diana Crump. She is an amazing instructor. The aircraft are well maintained and the prices are very reasonable. They were the perfect school for me.

Great school. Great instructors. Good safe aircraft. I finished up PPL with Carson, he is very knowledgeable. All the other instructors there have been very helpful and made it fun! I will be continuing with Pilot Rise for instrument and commercial. I highly recommend this flight school.
