Air Fleet Training Systems, IncFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Fairfield, New Jersey

Air Fleet Training Systems, Inc is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 35 Wright Way in Fairfield, New Jersey 07004, under air agency certificate CZOS108D with location designator CZOS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Essex County (KCDW) at Caldwell, a towered field at 172 ft elevation, 1.3 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.3 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 07004 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 Century Air Inc in Fairfield, NJ at under 0.1 miles, followed by American Flyers Inc in Morristown at 8.8 miles. New Jersey has 7 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #28 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Fairfield (2), Medford (1) and Morristown (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.
