Our Locations

The Aviation Academy state-of-the-art facilities are situated at Acadiana Regional Airport (KARA) in New Iberia, Louisiana, and Abbeville Memorial Airport (KIYA) in Abbeville, Louisiana.  Located just a short drive from anywhere in Cajun Country, our campus provides a tranquil and supportive learning environment for aspiring pilots. With lower traffic volume, beginner students can take their time to master the basics, while experienced pilots can take advantage of the challenging airspace at Lafayette Regional Airport (Class Charlie), just a few minutes away by air.

 

The New Iberia (Acadiana Regional) airport facility features our main offices and helicopter flight training base of operations on 705 Hangar Dr.  Our New Iberia fixed wing flight training base of operations is located at 4516 Ed LaSalle Rd.

​

At the Abbeville (Chris Crusta Memorial) airport facility, our fixed wing flight training base of operations is located at 262 Jimmy C. Vorhoff Jr. Dr. in the Vector Aviation Building.

 

Join us at Aviation Academy and experience the thrill of flight in a safe and comfortable learning environment.
