Balloon the Rockies IncFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Hurricane, Utah

Balloon the Rockies Inc is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 286 W 678 S in Hurricane, Utah 84737, under air agency certificate KL6S669N with location designator 7KLS. The same certificate covers 2 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Hurricane site only; the 1 other location is listed below. The address falls in the St. George, UT metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is General Dick Stout Field (1L8), a non-towered field at 3,351 ft elevation, 1.9 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 1.9 miles from that field, close enough that the aircraft are most likely based there, but confirm the training airport before comparing hourly rates. It is the only public-use airport within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists 3 other Part 141 locations; the closest is Epic Aviation, Inc in Saint George, UT at 15 miles, followed by Southern Utah University in Cedar City at 30 miles. Utah has 18 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #12 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Provo (3), Cedar City (2) and Logan (2). 1 of the Utah entries has no dedicated page because the FAA record lacks a usable address.

The FAA record carries an agency phone number, (435) 513-1210, and an agency email, mike@aeronaut.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.
