Flight Training

Choose Your Aircraft!

Madison County Ultralights is the only ultralight flight school in the Tennessee Valley offering you a choice of aircraft type: trike, fixed wing, or powered parachute. Take a flight in each, if you need help making up your mind. Learn to fly them all if you like.

Two Instructors

Madison County Ultralights is the only ultralight flight school in the Tennessee Valley with multiple instructors. This gives you more scheduling flexibility with your training and gives you a well-rounded flying education. Both instructors are ASC (Aero Sports Connection) certified Basic Flight Instructors with years of ultralight flying and training experience. They even spent a couple of years teaching students to fly hang gliders.

Ultralight-Safe Airport

Madison County Ultralights conducts flight training at a small, quiet airport in Hazel Green, Alabama. The runway is 3,000' long with a nice, smooth paved surface. The air traffic at the airport is very light. On some days, we have the entire place to ourselves all day long. This makes for low stress flying for the beginner, who might otherwise be distracted by other air traffic.

Safe Equipment & Instructors

Your safety is our primary concern in all our flight training operations. We keep our aircraft and equipment in excellent operating condition, and all our trainer aircraft (except the powered parachute) are equipped with ballistic emergency parachutes. Also, you'll always be in communication with your flight instructor via a helmet-mounted intercom system. We'll teach you not just how to fly... but how to fly safely. We take pride in producing safe pilots.
