Welcome to the 141 Pilot School Pre Application Course.

This course offers a structured guide to reviewing the certification process for those applicants seeking 141 Pilot School Certification. The course will give guidance for reviewing the regulations and other advisory material such as AC No 141-1A, and Handbook 8900.1. Completion of this course is a prerequisite, in most Flight Standard District Offices, for making application to the Federal Aviation Administration for Pilot School Certification. It will save valuable time for the applicant and FAA personnel on the Certification Team.

The objective of this course is to help prepare an applicant for a 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school by helping them understand and meet the necessary rules and guidance requirements concerning the operation of a pilot or provisional pilot school. After completion of this course you should have a better understanding of your duties and responsibilities as a applicant for a 141 Pilot School Certification Certificate under FAR 141 of the Federal Code of Regulations. 

Successful completion of this course results in the issuance of a graduation certificate enabling the applicant to begin the application process with the Federal Aviation Administration to become a 141 Pilot School.
