Lawrenceville Flight School
Serving the Greater Atlanta Area
Airline Transport Professionals has opened a second Atlanta location in Lawrenceville, GA at the Gwinnett County Airport to facilitate the growth of its renowned Airline Career Pilot Program.
The site boasts spacious classrooms, simulator bays and pilot sleep/shower quarters, along with 20,000 square feet of hangar space. In addition, ATP has installed and will operate its own fuel farm to keep costs as low as possible for professional pilot students. Gwinnett County Airport is an optimal fit for ATP, being outside the 30 NM veil of Atlanta’s busy Class B airspace. ATP students will enjoy the challenging towered environment of a Class D airport without the long waits for clearance.
“It was a pleasure flying with Kelvin King out of KLZU. Your facilities out there appeared well-maintained and organized. And, Kelvin provided first class, professional training. He was very knowledgeable about the aircraft and its systems.”
If you haven’t flown with ATP before, read a few testimonials that we have recently received from other pilots. Fly with ATP and you will see why we offer the best training experience in general aviation.
