Marshall University at Wheeling, WVFAA-certificated Part 141 pilot school in Wheeling, West Virginia

Marshall University at Wheeling, WV is listed by the FAA as a certificated 14 CFR Part 141 pilot school at 115 Skyway Lane in Wheeling, West Virginia 26003, under air agency certificate MU5S407L with location designator 0055. The same certificate covers 3 FAA-listed locations, so this page describes the Wheeling site only; the 2 other locations are listed below. The address falls in the Wheeling, WV-OH metropolitan statistical area.

The nearest public-use airport in the FAA's NASR database (effective 6 August 2026) is Wheeling Ohio County (KHLG), a towered field at 1,194 ft elevation, 7.3 miles from the school's listed address. The listed address is 7.3 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 26003 ZIP-code centroid and is approximate. It is the only public-use airport within 10 miles of the address.

Within 100 miles the FAA lists at least five other Part 141 locations; the closest is Cloud 9 Aviation in Washington, PA at 20 miles, followed by Community College of Allegheny County in West Mifflin at 42 miles. West Virginia has 5 FAA-listed Part 141 locations in this snapshot, ranking #36 of 51 states and territories, with the largest clusters in Martinsburg (2), Bridgeport (1) and Charleston (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.
