Aspiring to new heights in aviation
Cape Fear Coastal Aviation was born out of two passions: flying and training. Once former police officer and sim enthusiast Ben Zucker connected with aviator and Flight Club president Rich Williams through a mutual friend, plans for a flight school began brewing. But it wasn’t until Cirrus approached the team looking for a partner on the field that the vision for Cape Fear Coastal Aviation came into focus.
Now we are proud to provide a customized next-generation, simulator-based approach to flight instruction. CFCA Flight School and CFCA Cirrus Training Center enable men and women of all ages to pursue their dream of flight safely and effectively. We are dedicated to getting you, our student, where you want to be, traveling along a path that’s best for you. The Motto that drives us is simple: “Your goals are our goals.”
Our mission
To train safe, competent, and confident aviators who can live out their dream of flying.
Our core values
The word aspire means to ascend and soar, or to seek to attain or accomplish a particular goal. At Cape Fear Coastal Aviation, we embrace this word as our foundation—we aspire to provide the ultimate aviation experience to our students and clients with a commitment to six core values. Here, we strive to live and work every day by these “ASPIRE” principles.
