About
Right Rudder Aviation
We believe the foundation of flight is confidence. Every program we run, every airplane we maintain and every checkride we prepare a student for is built around that one idea.
We believe the foundation of flight is confidence. Every program we run, every airplane we maintain and every checkride we prepare a student for is built around that one idea.
Right Rudder Aviation started as a full service operation in Inverness, Florida, built on a simple premise: put the flight school, the maintenance shop and the FBO under one roof so nothing falls through the cracks between them.
That model worked. Students finished. Owners stopped chasing three different vendors. Renters found airplanes that were actually available. So we did it again in Tennessee.
A confident pilot makes better decisions, especially when conditions change. That’s why we believe good training is about more than passing a checkride.
“We are not trying to get you through a checkride. We are trying to make you the kind of pilot who is still flying safely in twenty years.”
Flight training, aircraft rental, maintenance, testing and more, all under one roof.
Private through flight instructor, plus ground school, simulator time and a syllabus built around your schedule.
Checked out renters get access to the same well-kept airplanes we train in, seven days a week.
Buying or selling an airplane. We have been on both sides of the transaction more than once.

We know the airspace, the terrain and the weather that actually cancels a lesson in Jackson, Tennessee
Every student gets a plan built around their goal and their calendar, not a one size fits all syllabus.
If we're in the air when you call, we'll get back to you as soon as we're back on the ground.
Training, maintenance, rental and testing in the same building, so nothing gets lost between vendors.
If yours is not here, call. We would rather answer it than have you guess.
Flight training from private pilot through flight instructor, aircraft rental for checked out pilots, a full service FBO, an in-house maintenance shop, an FAA written testing center, and aircraft brokerage.
No. Most of our students have never touched the controls of an airplane. A discovery flight is the usual first step, and it counts toward your certificate if you decide to keep going.
It depends on how often you fly and which certificate you are after. We give you a written estimate before you enroll, covering hours, rates, materials and checkride fees.
Yes, once you complete a checkout with one of our instructors. The checkout is thorough, but it is not a hazing ritual.
