Falcon Field
Airport (KFFZ)

A Historic Airport
with a Modern Mission

Falcon Field has been a part of aviation history since 1941, when it opened as the No. 4 British Flying Training School — training Royal Air Force pilots during World War II. After the war, the City of Mesa took ownership and transformed it into one of the region’s most active general aviation hubs.

Today, Falcon Field sits on 784 acres with two parallel runways and is home to more than 800 based aircraft. It’s one of the busiest general aviation airports in the United States, and it’s where Kodiak Aviation has chosen to base its fleet.

Why Fly from Falcon Field?

Location, location, location.

Falcon Field is located approximately 14 miles east of Phoenix Sky Harbor, with convenient access to Loop 202 (Red Mountain Freeway), the 101 Freeway, and Highway 60 (Superstition Freeway). You’re minutes from Scottsdale, Chandler, Tempe, and East Mesa — and the Phoenix metro’s millions of potential students and pilots.

Class D Airspace — Real-World Training Environment

KFFZ sits in Class D airspace beneath Phoenix’s Class Bravo, giving student pilots authentic ATC communication experience from their very first flights. Training here prepares you for real-world flying — not just checkrides.

Perfect Launchpad for
Arizona Adventures

Falcon Field’s central location in the Phoenix metro puts iconic destinations within easy reach for cross-country training and recreational flying:

  • Sedona (1.0 hr)
  • Grand Canyon (1.5 hr)
  • Prescott (0.5 hr)
  • Tucson (1.0 hr)
  • Las Vegas (2.0 hr)
  • San Diego (2.5 hr)

Year-Round Flying Weather

With over 300 days of sunshine per year and minimal disruption from weather, the Phoenix area offers one of the best flying climates in the country. Less time grounded means more hours logged.
