What is Part 141 Training?

Part 141 refers to a set of FAA regulations that govern structured flight training programs. These programs are full-time, by-the-book, and follow a curriculum and schedule approved by the FAA. Designed for consistency and efficiency, Part 141 training is often the preferred path for students pursuing aviation as a career.

Part 141 courses are also required for:

• International students on M-1 Student Visas
• Veterans using GI Bill® benefits
• College students receiving federal financial aid

At Paragon Flight, our Part 141 programs offer the structure and oversight needed to meet these requirements while delivering exceptional instruction and support.
