Texas State Technical CollegeFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Waco, Texas

Texas State Technical College is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 3801 Campus Dr. in Waco, Texas 76705, under air agency certificate FT8S150Q with location designator FT8S. The FAA lists this same address 2 times, under designators FT8S and TSTS on certificates FT8S150Q and TSTS863K; they are treated here as one location. The address falls in the Waco, TX metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is TSTC Waco (KCNW), a towered field at 470 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 76705 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 Baylor University in Waco, TX at 5.9 miles, followed by Uhi Inc in Waco at 7.7 miles. Texas has 74 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #2 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Fort Worth (9), Denison (4) and Waco (4). 4 of the Texas entries have no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (415) 305-7257, and an agency email, uj@ksql.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.
