Southeast Missouri State UniversityFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Southeast Missouri State University is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at One University Plaza MS6825 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri 63701, under air agency certificate SSMS041M with location designator SSMS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Cape Girardeau, MO-IL metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Cape Girardeau Regional (KCGI), a towered field at 342 ft elevation, 6.7 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 6.7 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. 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 US Aviation Group LLC in Cape Girardeau, MO at 9.8 miles, followed by Aviation Flight in Murphysboro at 35 miles. Missouri has 9 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #24 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Cape Girardeau (2), Springfield (2) and Joplin (1).

The FAA record carries no agency phone, email or website for this location, so contact details have to come from the school directly. 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.
