Universidad Ana G. Mendez-Carolina CampusFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Carolina, Puerto Rico
Universidad Ana G. Mendez-Carolina Campus is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at Ave. Principal Sabana Carr. 190, Barrio Sabana Abajo in Carolina, Puerto Rico 00983, under air agency certificate 6UGS371L with location designator 6UGS. The certificate covers this single location in the FAA list. The address falls in the San Juan-Bayamón-Caguas, PR metropolitan statistical area.
The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Luis Munoz Marin International (TJSJ) at San Juan, a towered field at 10 ft elevation, 2.1 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 2.1 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 00983 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. 2 public-use airports sit within 10 miles of the address.
Within 100 miles the FAA lists 3 other Part 141 locations; the closest is Inter American University of Puerto Rico Inc in San Juan, PR at 7.4 miles, followed by Isla Grande Flying School and Service Corporation in San Juan at 7.4 miles. Puerto Rico has 4 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #40 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in San Juan (2), Carolina (1) and Ceiba (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.
