CoccFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Bend, Oregon
Cocc is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Central Oregon Community College, 2600 NW College Way in Bend, Oregon 97701, under air agency certificate L9QS350Y with location designator 29QS. The same certificate covers 2 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Bend site only; the 1 other location is listed below. The address falls in the Bend, OR metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Bend Municipal (KBDN), a non-towered field at 3,459 ft elevation, 11 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 11 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 97701 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. No public-use airport lies within 10 miles of the listed address.
Within 100 miles the FAA lists 3 other Part 141 locations; the closest is Leading Edge Flight Academy LLC in Bend, OR at 11 miles, followed by Specialized Aero Works, LLC in Bend at 11 miles. Oregon has 15 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #17 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Bend (3), Troutdale (2) and Albany (1). 1 of the Oregon entries has no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.
The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (541) 383-8825, and an agency email, twrthen@flybend.com; 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.
