Is Wasatch an FAA Part 141 or Part 61 flight school?
Wasatch operates as an independent flight school under Part 61 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs). Because we choose not to operate under Part 141 of the Regulations, we are not approved to issue educational visas to foreign students or to accept advanced students with G.I. Bill or Veteran’s Benefits. Please note, however, that those Government benefits CANNOT be used for a person’s initial Private Pilot training. The benefits only apply to ADVANCED pilot training (like Commercial, Flight Instructor, or ATP certificates and ratings). Our academy is currently applying for the Part 141 certification and should be able to offer those benefits in the summer of 2009.
