Eastern Michigan UniversityFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Ypsilanti, Michigan

Eastern Michigan University is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 206K Roosevelt Hall in Ypsilanti, Michigan 48197, under air agency certificate 23ES197L with location designator 23ES. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Ann Arbor, MI metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Belleville (43G) at Belleville, a non-towered field at 695 ft elevation, 5.0 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 5.0 miles from that field, so it may be an administrative or campus address rather than the ramp; ask the school where its training aircraft are actually based. The Census geocoder could not match the FAA street address to a rooftop, so this distance is measured from the 48197 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. 3 public-use airports sit within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Yip Satellite in Belleville, MI at 12 miles, followed by PTK Satellite in Waterford at 34 miles. Michigan has 11 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #21 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Battle Creek (1), Belleville (1) and Berrien Springs (1).

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (734) 487-4691, 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.
