Homestead GeneralFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Homestead, Florida

Homestead General is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 28790 SW 217th Ave in Homestead, Florida 33030, under air agency certificate 9PTS035L with location designator 91PS. The same certificate covers 2 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Homestead site only; the 1 other location is listed below. The address falls in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Miami Homestead General Aviation (X51), a non-towered field at 7 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. It is the only public-use airport within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Orient Flight School in Homestead, FL at under 0.1 miles, followed by Miami Dade College in Miami at 13 miles. Florida has 108 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #1 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Pembroke Pines (8), Jacksonville (7) and Miami (7). 1 of the Florida entries has no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (786) 925-5043, and an agency email, yogini@orientflightschool.net; it carries no website, so the contact details above are the only ones the FAA publishes 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.
