Select Your Training Path *

The Professional Airline Pilot Career Path includes the following ratings: Private Pilot (141), Instrument Rating (141), Commercial Pilot (141), Certified Flight Instructor (141), Certified Flight Instructor Instrument (141), and Multi-Engine Additional Ratings. These ratings are required to build the experience required to eventually earn your Airline Transport Pilot Certificate. If you simply desire to learn how to fly for, but are unsure of future career aspirations we recommend selecting the Private Pilot Course (141).

of provision tuition

Do you intend to use COOL funding for the cost of any practical or written test?

Will you be using GI Bill Benefits to help cover the tuition cost of flight training?

VA approved courses for tuition reimbursement include the ATP-CTP and all 141 flight training courses except private pilot. The ATP Accelerated Preparation Course IS NOT a VA approved course.

Do you intend to seek GI Bill reimbursement under the licensing and certification provision for the cost of a practical or written test?

GI Bill tuition reimbursements do not cover the cost of the practical test or written tests; however, beneficiaries may submit a personal claim to the VA for the cost of any practical or written tests. This claim is solely between the student and the VA. Our staff will provide amplifying information and guidance.
