Ocala Aviation Services, IncFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Ocala, Florida
Ocala Aviation Services, Inc is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 1820 SW 60th Ave in Ocala, Florida 34474, under air agency certificate Z15S111M with location designator Z15S. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Ocala, FL metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Ocala International-Jim Taylor Field (KOCF), a towered field at 90 ft elevation, 1.4 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.4 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. The Census geocoder could not match the FAA street address to a rooftop, so this distance is measured from the 34474 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. 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 PRP Aviation, LLC in Ocala, FL at 0.5 miles, followed by Epic Flight Academy Inc in Ocala at 1.1 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, (352) 861-7484, 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.
