Thrust Flight is hosting an open house at our Mesa, Arizona campus on June 15, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.
If you’ve been curious about what it takes to become an airline pilot, this is your chance to walk through a commercial pilot training campus, speak with pilots at every stage of their journey, and see what it will take for you to become a pilot.
Address: 5047 E Roadrunner Dr, Mesa, AZ 85215
What to Expect
This is a low-key, come-and-see event. There’s no presentation to sit through, no hard sell waiting for you at the door. Bring your family, bring a friend who’s been asking questions, or just come by yourself.
Here’s what will be happening:
- Games
- Free food
- Merch giveaways
- Discovery flight giveaways
- Campus tours for the public, friends, and family
The discovery flight giveaways are the highlight. If you’ve never flown before and want to find out what it actually feels like to be at the controls of a small plane, this is a real opportunity to do that at no cost.
About Thrust Flight and the Zero Time to Airline Program
Thrust Flight is a Part 141 FAA-certified career pilot school with campuses in Texas and Arizona. Our Mesa campus sits at Falcon Field (KFFZ), one of the busiest general aviation airports in the country.
Our flagship program is Zero Time to Airline, or ZTA. It’s an accelerated path designed for people who want to build a career as a commercial pilot. The program takes students from zero flight experience through their commercial pilot certificate, CFI, and CFII, with the goal of meeting the qualifications airlines look for at the regional and major carrier level.
If you’re trying to figure out whether this is a realistic path for you, talking to an advisor at the open house is a good place to start. Financing options are available for those who qualify.
