M.I. Air CorporationFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Chino, California
M.I. Air Corporation is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 7000 Merrill Ave., A-544, Hangar F-2 in Chino, California 91710, under air agency certificate MI9S361K with location designator MI9S. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Chino (KCNO), a towered field at 650 ft elevation, 1.1 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.1 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. With 4 public-use airports inside 10 miles, this is a dense training area where cross-country and pattern work at other fields is a short hop.
Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Silver Express Company in Corona, CA at 4.8 miles, followed by Rotors and Wings Aviation Inc in La Verne at 10 miles. California has 64 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #3 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in San Jose (6), Long Beach (4) and Riverside (4). 1 of the California entries has no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.
The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (909) 393-7686, but no agency email or website for this location. Certification under Part 141 means the FAA has approved the school's training course outlines, facilities and chief-instructor arrangements and inspects them; it is not a quality ranking, and it does not by itself mean the school is VA-approved for GI Bill funding or accredited for federal student aid.
