Pelican Flight Training Center (Pelican Airways) is a private, FAA Part-141 flight school located at the North Perry Airport in Pembroke Pines, Florida, United States.[1] Founded in 1985 at Tamiami[2] by former Laker Airways chief pilot Terrance A. Fensome, then later moved to Pembroke Pines, Pelican Airways has gone from being a charter airline to specialising in flight training.

Its focus area was Indian students, until 2008 when Pelican contracted with North European Aviation Resources for the training of European students. After this contract was transferred to its successor North European Institute of Aviation, and the subsequent demise of that company, Pelican Flight Training has established a European program in cooperation with the Riga Aeronautical Institute.[3] The former owner and president, Terrance A. Fensome, left the business at the same time and later sold it in 2013.
