Strategic Partnership

Alpha Flight × Maloy.

The future of flight training — purpose-built aircraft, integrated software, and a training philosophy designed from the ground up.

On October 9, 2025, Alpha Flight Academy signed a formal agreement with Maloy Aircraft at their Plymouth, Indiana headquarters. We were named an official Maloy training provider and committed to taking delivery of the first four aircraft off the Maloy production line.

This is not an equipment purchase. It is a shared vision: build a fully integrated pilot training platform that combines next-generation aircraft, simulator integration, and training management software into a single cohesive system.

"Not to compete with what exists — but to create what has been missing."
— Maloy Aircraft
The Problem

Why this partnership matters.

The pilot pipeline is broken. The aircraft and software stack used to train commercial pilots has not changed in a generation. The need has only grown.

The Aircraft

The BlueJay (MA-1).

Maloy's flagship aircraft is a purpose-built training platform designed around airline expectations, not legacy constraints. It is the first training aircraft engineered from scratch for the modern commercial pilot pipeline.

  • Powerplant — RED A03 V12 twin-turbocharged, 500 horsepower, FADEC. Turboprop-level performance at a substantially lower cost.
  • Cockpit — Tandem seating, inherited from military training. Eliminates the side-by-side crutch and fosters focus.
  • Avionics — Dual Garmin glass cockpits — both seats with identical systems for full IFR capability.
  • Safety — In-seat parachute systems with optional ejection seats. Hydraulically actuated retractable landing gear.
  • Propeller — MT-Propeller MTV-9 — three-blade, constant-speed, advanced composite.
Flight Lead™ Software

Curriculum, progress, and performance — in one system.

Maloy's proprietary training management platform — modeled on proven military training structures, refined for civilian use.
