What is the difference between FAA Part 61 and Part 141 flight training regulations?
Students at Wright Flyers may train under FAA Part 61 or Part 141 regulations, and will learn the same things and take the same FAA tests regardless of which curriculum they choose. The Part 141 curriculum is very structured and must be completed in a specific order. Most Part 141 programs were designed for students aspiring to become professional pilots. The Part 61 curriculum is not bound by the same stringent structure, and allows flight instructors to tailor a program to each student’s needs.
