Community College of Allegheny CountyFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania
Community College of Allegheny County is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 1750 Clairton Rd in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania 15122, under air agency certificate FC8S133Q with location designator FC8S. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the Pittsburgh, PA metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Allegheny County (KAGC) at Pittsburgh, a towered field at 1,252 ft elevation, 1.8 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.8 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. With 4 public-use airports inside 10 miles, this is a dense training area where cross-country and pattern work at other fields is a short hop.
Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Cloud 9 Aviation in West Mifflin, PA at 2.9 miles, followed by Cloud 9 Aviation in Washington at 23 miles. Pennsylvania has 30 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #4 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Allentown (3), Beaver Falls (3) and Blue Bell (2). 1 of the Pennsylvania entries has no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.
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.
