Ready to build something great from day one?

We’re launching at Spinks—and looking for the right leader to grow with us.

Stature Aviation is a Platinum Cirrus Training Center , providing best-in-class flight training, Cirrus management, and Cirrus services across the Dallas–Fort Worth area. With bases in Addison and Fort Worth, we’re known for offering an elite client experience tailored to busy professionals, Cirrus owners, and those seeking excellence, safety, and adventure.

As we expand to a third location at Spinks Airport (launching July 1), we’re looking for a driven and relationship-focused Regional Lead Instructor to help us build this base from the ground up.

Leadership & Team Development

• Help hire and mentor new instructors as demand grows

• Competitive pay plan with base salary + flight pay + sales commission
• Medical & dental insurance
• Paid time off & holidays
• A chance to build something great from day one
