Global Aviation Center IncFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Farmingdale, New York
Global Aviation Center Inc is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Republic Airport Route 109, Atlantic Suite 106 in Farmingdale, New York 11735, under air agency certificate 1GLS281L with location designator 1GLS. 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 Republic (KFRG), a towered field at 82 ft elevation, 1.0 mile from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.0 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 11735 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 Farmingdale State College in Farmingdale, NY at under 0.1 miles, followed by Academy of Aviation LLC in Farmingdale at 1.1 miles. New York has 21 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #9 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Farmingdale (3), Ronkonkoma (2) and Ballston Spa (1).
The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (631) 391-9110, and an agency email, info@globalaviationcorp.net; 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.
