Contact Airline Pilot Flight School
Text or call (747) 688-9988 from 9am to 9pm, weekends included. The school works out of Suite 108 at 7900 Balboa Blvd, on the Van Nuys Airport field, and a text message usually reaches an instructor faster than anything else on this page does.
Which Route Gets You An Answer Fastest?
A text message, most of the time. (747) 688-9988 takes texts and voice calls on the same line, it is watched from 9am until 9pm every day of the week, and a typed question arrives with its detail already attached instead of waiting for two people to be free at once.
Texting suits this kind of enquiry unusually well. A first question is nearly always a specific one — what a rating costs, whether a Saturday slot exists, how long a written-test endorsement takes — and a typed question earns a typed answer you can keep, forward, and check afterwards against the published price list. Ringing the same number suits the longer conversation about sequence and timing, which is a poor fit for a keyboard.
The enquiry form further down this page is the third route in, and it is the right one when the question runs to a paragraph rather than a line, or when you would rather set out your weekly availability in writing overnight. All three arrive with an instructor rather than with a salesperson, and that difference matters considerably more than the channel you pick.
The school occupies Suite 108 at 7900 Balboa Blvd in Van Nuys, on the airport field itself. The airplanes and the simulator are a short walk from that door, and visitors are welcome across the same hours the telephone is answered. Nothing about looking round needs an appointment, though a text before you set off means somebody is expecting you rather than airborne.
What can be said about the field is public information rather than a claim: Van Nuys Airport is a towered Class D field at 802 feet above mean sea level, sitting beneath the Class B airspace that wraps Los Angeles International. That geometry shapes every lesson flown from here, and any chart supplement will confirm it without anybody here being asked.
Where Is The School?
Suite 108 at 7900 Balboa Blvd, Van Nuys, California 91406, on the Van Nuys Airport field. The map points at that door. The rows beside it cover the airport underneath it, which is what starts to matter once you are flying out of the place.

The map is centred on the suite rather than on the airport as a whole, because the field is large and the two are not the same walk. Directions open in whichever map application your device already uses. Send a text on the way if you would rather be met at the door.
What Does This Operation Actually Run?
The flying, all of it. Six airframe types owned rather than leased, a Redbird MCX full-motion simulator, eleven instructors each holding a commercial certificate or an ATP with an instructor certificate on top, and a published price for every course we teach. None of that is pending anything.
The field is settled too, and it is public information rather than a claim: the field is a towered Class D airport at 802 feet, underneath the Class B shelf that wraps Los Angeles International. On a hot September afternoon the density altitude runs to roughly 4,100 ft, and that belongs in a performance calculation rather than in a paragraph of marketing.
So is the front-of-house detail, and it is printed here in full: one line carrying both text messages and voice calls, one suite on one street, and one opening range running from 9am to 9pm every day weekends included. Those three read identically in the header of this site, in its footer, and in the structured data a search engine collects from every page.
It stays a reasonable thing to check rather than to take on trust, so the verifiable list further down this page is there for a reader who would rather not ask first. Everything on it stands up without a conversation, and the fleet page and the instructors page carry the detail.
What Are The Ways To Start A Conversation?
Four, in ascending order of how much they tell you. The first two cost nothing and take a minute, the third costs an hour of your day, and the fourth costs $229 and answers the most.
Text Or Call (747) 688-9988
One line takes both. A text earns a written answer you can keep and re-read; a call earns the longer conversation about sequence and timing. Either reaches an instructor between 9am and 9pm, on a Sunday as readily as on a Tuesday.

The form further down this page. It suits the question that runs to a paragraph — a rating, a price, the enrolment sequence — or the one you would rather leave in writing late at night. It reaches an instructor rather than a salesperson, which is the difference that matters here.

Those rows are read from one place in the theme, so the hours, the number and the street address say the same thing here, in the site header, in the footer and in the structured data behind the page. The same line takes a text message, which is often the faster way to ask something short.
What Happens To An Enquiry After You Send It?
Six things, and the list is short because the policy is short. An instructor answers the question you asked, once, and nothing else happens unless you ask for it.
An Instructor Reads It
Not a salesperson and not a call centre. The people who answer enquiries here are the people who would be teaching you, which is why a specific question gets a specific answer.
Answered Inside Opening Hours
The line and the form are both watched from 9am until 9pm, seven days a week. Something that arrives late in the evening is answered the next morning rather than at midnight, and no response-time statistic is published, because this operation has no track record to average yet and inventing one would be the same category of error as inventing a review.
One Reply, Not A Sequence
You get an answer to what you asked. There is no follow-up cadence, no drip campaign and no second contact unless you ask for one.
The Published Price Is The Only Price
Nobody will quote you a figure different from the one on the pricing page. There is no negotiated rate, no block-rate arrangement and no discount available to somebody who asks well.
No Answer Gets Invented
Where something is genuinely unsettled — what additional instruction costs, or several of the refund terms — you will be told that plainly rather than given a plausible number.
You May Be Sent Elsewhere
If a part 61 provider does not suit your funding route or your visa category, or if you want tailwheel, aerobatic or helicopter training, you will be told so rather than sold a program that does not fit.
What Can You Verify About This Operation Right Now?
Five things, and not one of them needs a conversation first. A school that opened this year is a reasonable thing to check rather than to take on trust, so here is what stands up before you get in touch at all.
Airframe Types On The Ramp, Owned Rather Than Brokered
Cessna 162 Skycatcher, Piper Warrior, Piper Arrow II, Diamond DA20, Cirrus SR22 Turbo and Piper Seminole. The airplanes belong to the operation, so the maintenance calendar is ours and not a lessor's.
Inspected under 14 CFR 91.409(b)Instructors Working Here
Each carries a commercial certificate or an ATP beneath, an instructor certificate above it, and a medical in date. You are matched with one of them, and you may ask for another if the fit is wrong.
14 CFR 61.183 · 61.23 · 61.195Training-Capable Days Measured Across Twelve Months
Counted from NOAA ASOS observations for the year ending 1 August 2026, admitting a day only where the ceiling held at 3,000 feet with five statute miles of visibility across four qualifying daylight hours.
NOAA ASOS via the Iowa Environmental MesonetA Session In The Full-Motion Simulator
Two sessions sit inside Standard and Premium, five inside Comprehensive, and weather never takes one away.
Published, not quoted on requestProgram Prices Withheld Until You Enquire
None. Every course figure is printed on the site, nothing is offered as a spread, and the price you sign for is the price you read.
Stated rather than impliedWhat Happens When You Get In Touch?
An instructor answers the question you asked. Nobody telephones you repeatedly, nobody quotes a figure different from the published one, and nobody offers a discount to close today. Those three sentences are the whole of the policy and they are not going to grow.
The published prices are the prices. There is no negotiated rate, no block-rate discount and no arrangement available to somebody who asks well. That removes the entire category of conversation most people expect to have with a flight school, and removing it is the point rather than a side effect.
If a question has no published answer — what additional instruction costs beyond a program, for instance — you will be told that plainly and given the actual answer in writing rather than a deflection. There are a small number of these and this site names them where they occur rather than hiding them.
And where the truthful answer is that another school suits you better, you will get that too. A part 61 provider does not satisfy funding routes or immigration categories that require a certificated school, and there is no tailwheel or aerobatic airplane on this ramp. Both facts are already on the site rather than saved for a conversation.
Can You Just Come And Look?
Yes, and it is worth doing. Suite 108 is open from 9am to 9pm every day; send a text before you set off so somebody is on the ground when you arrive, and bring the questions a website cannot honestly answer on its own behalf.
A ramp is far easier to judge in person than in a photograph. Walk the line, look inside the airframes, sit in the simulator, and ask what the airframe times are, who signs the maintenance, how many students each instructor is carrying, and what happens to a lesson cancelled for weather.
The same visit is the right moment to ask for the two documents worth reading before any money moves: the syllabus for the program you are considering, and the training agreement with its refund terms. Both are handed over before payment rather than afterwards.
The Airframes
Six types, and you can look inside any of them. The panels differ deliberately, and seeing a round-gauge Warrior beside the Cirrus explains the Premium program faster than a page of copy.
The Simulator
The Redbird MCX is fully enclosed and full-motion. Sit in it. It is the quickest way to understand what a $189 session buys and what it does not.
The Instructors
Ask which one you would be matched with and why. Eleven of them means one full calendar does not stall your training, and it means changing instructor does not mean changing school.
The Paperwork
The syllabus and the training agreement, before you pay. Read the refund position on the terms page first, then check it against the agreement, and ask about anything the two do not both answer.
Contact Questions
It is (747) 688-9988. The same line takes text messages and voice calls, and it is answered from 9am until 9pm, seven days a week. Texting is generally quicker for a short, specific question; ring it when you want to talk a whole plan through instead.
Suite 108 at 7900 Balboa Blvd, Van Nuys, California 91406, on the Van Nuys Airport field. The airport is a towered Class D field at 802 feet above mean sea level, below the Class B airspace around Los Angeles International. The map on this page is centred on the suite rather than on the airport, because the field is large.
9am until 9pm, on all seven days. That range covers the telephone, text messages and the door in Suite 108 alike, and it is the same range printed in the site footer and carried in the structured data behind this page.
Yes, and for a first question it is usually the better choice. (747) 688-9988 accepts text messages as well as voice, so something typed on a phone at a bus stop earns a written answer you can read back later and hold us to. Standard message rates from your own carrier apply; the school charges nothing for it.
An instructor rather than a salesperson. Include what you are trying to achieve, roughly when, and what your weekly availability looks like, because those three things are what turn a generic answer into a useful one.
No. One reply to the question you asked, and a follow-up only if you ask for one. There is no sales cadence here, no discount that expires today, and no price available by asking that differs from the price published on the site.
Yes, and it is worth doing. The door in Suite 108 is open from 9am to 9pm every day. A ramp is far easier to judge in person than in a photograph, and an hour on the field tells you more about how a school operates than any page can. Text before you set off so somebody is free when you arrive.
Yes, and it is a conversation about a plan rather than about a product: where you are starting from, what you are aiming at, what the sequence looks like, and what it would realistically cost in time as well as in money. It is not a sales appointment.
The target is the same working day, and inside opening hours a text is normally the quickest of the routes on this page. No figure is published for it, because there is no track record to average yet and inventing a response-time statistic would be the same category of error as inventing a review.
You can get the published price, which is the only price there is. Every course figure is on the pricing page as a single number rather than a range, and there is no separate quote, no negotiated rate and no block-rate arrangement behind it.
Ask it, and if there is no published answer you will be told that plainly. There are a small number of things this site does not price or state — what additional instruction beyond a program costs, for one — and those are named where they occur rather than glossed over.
Yes. Saturday and Sunday carry the same hours as a Tuesday does: 9am to 9pm. Weekend lessons are scheduled inside that range like any other, and a text sent on a Saturday morning does not sit unread until Monday.
The Details On This Page
Airline Pilot Flight School occupies Suite 108 at 7900 Balboa Blvd, Van Nuys, California 91406, and is reached on (747) 688-9988 for texts and for voice, from 9am until 9pm on every day of the week. That number, that address and those hours are the only ones this business publishes; they read the same in the header of this site, in its footer, and in the structured data behind every page of it. No other business's number, address or hours are published here, and none will be.
Airline Pilot Flight School trains under part 61 of 14 CFR, at Van Nuys Airport. It is not an airline, it is not owned by one, and no carrier holds a cadet program, pathway agreement or hiring arrangement with us. We do not guarantee an interview, a job or a salary.
No pass rate, no graduate count and no rating of any kind is published on this site. The operation is new, any such figure would come from a sample too small to mean anything, and inventing one is the easiest lie available in this industry. What is published instead is the syllabus, the price, the hours and the regulation behind each requirement.
A Ramp Is Easier To Judge In Person Than Through A Form
Text the number, send the form, or skip a step and book an hour in an airplane. All three reach an instructor. Only the last also settles whether you want any of this, and enrolling within a day of flying it puts the whole $229 against your program.

The assessment flight is the first hour of the syllabus and a two-way evaluation. You fly it from the left seat with an instructor beside you, they write down what they saw, and you get an honest read on whether the plan is realistic. It is loggable, and it is credited in full against enrolment if you enroll within 24 hours.
