Part 141 Means Higher Training Standards

  • Convenience, Flexibility and Expertise

    Academy of Aviation is designed for your pilot training success, whether you are flying for work or for fun.

    Our career programs are designed in consultation with our partners in the airline and charter industries.

    Our recreational programs follow the same proven curriculum as our career programs, but allow for flexible scheduling to work with any aspiring aviator. Our fleet is tailored to both private pilot/recreational and career training.

    Part 141 Private Pilot course training syllabi have been evaluated by the FAA and follow a strict protocol. Both the student and the flight schools must adhere exactly to what the FAA has approved so there are no variations in training. The benefit, you can obtain your FAA Private Pilot License in fewer hours, which means shorter training time and less money.

    Part 61 Private Pilot courses, in comparison, are simply more flexible in how the training is conducted but have a higher flight hour requirement.

    Simply stated, Part 61 are the standards to certify a pilot while Part 141 is for certifying flight schools.
