Born from a Passion for Flying

King Schools, Inc. is the world´s leading producer of aviation training videos and computer software. It was first established in 1974, when John and Martha began flying throughout the country to teach ground school courses. A decade later, they began producing video courses in a spare room of their house.

Today, King Schools has over 70 employees operating from an 18,000 sq. ft. complex, housing a dedicated video production and duplication facility. In the past 10 years we have delivered more than 2-1/2 million videos with over 4 million hours of video instruction, teaching up to one-half of the instrument students and over one-third of all pilots in the U.S. obtaining training.

We are keenly aware of the importance of the work we do. During the time someone is learning to fly, flying is the most important thing in his or her life. We are privileged to play such a significant role in the lives of such committed individuals. We take pride in producing quality work for these special people.

Our Mission

King Schools is in the business of providing aviation education and information and related products of the highest quality, sold and delivered through ethical and responsible marketing and outstanding customer service. It is the goal of King Schools to do good things for people and to succeed by seeking out and taking care of the needs of CUSTOMERS, fellow workers and vendors.
