The ECSU Flight Training Facility at Currituck County Regional Airport supports the School of Aviation’s curriculum by providing students with hands-on flight training under the supervision of university instructors. The facility includes two hangars directly adjacent to the airport with a secure airfield perimeter fence and access-controlled doors. The training hangar features state-of-the-art FAA-certified Advanced Aviation Training Devices (AATD) built by Redbird Simulations, offices, waiting/lounge area, restrooms and briefing rooms for student and instructor use during pre- and post-flight sessions.

As the only four-year collegiate aviation education program in the State of North Carolina, ECSU offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Aviation Science and is certified by the FAA as a Part 141 Flight Training Program.
