Quincy Regional AirportFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Quincy, Illinois

Quincy Regional Airport is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Quincy Regional Airport, 1647 Hwy 104 in Quincy, Illinois 62305, under air agency certificate UZCS289K with location designator 1ZCS. The same certificate covers 7 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Quincy site only; the 6 other locations are listed below. The address falls in the Quincy, IL-MO micropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Quincy Regional-Baldwin Field (KUIN), a non-towered field at 769 ft elevation, 0.6 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is on or beside the airfield, which is the usual arrangement for a Part 141 operation flying from its own ramp. It is the only public-use airport within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists 1 other Part 141 location; the closest is Saint Charles Flying Service Inc in Portage Des Sioux, MO at 80 miles. Illinois has 15 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #15 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Centralia (2), Belleville (1) and Chicago (1).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (319) 670-8665, and an agency email, jmauch@flyja.com; 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.
