US Aviation Group LLCFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Cape Girardeau, Missouri

US Aviation Group LLC is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 860 Rush Limbaugh Drive in Cape Girardeau, Missouri 63780, under air agency certificate U9FS750K with location designator 79FS. The same certificate covers 7 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Cape Girardeau site only; the 6 other locations are listed below. The address falls in the Sikeston, MO micropolitan 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, 5.3 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 5.3 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 63780 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 Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, MO at 9.8 miles, followed by Aviation Flight in Murphysboro at 43 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 an agency phone number, (940) 383-2484, 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.
