Yavapai College And North-Aire Partner To Serve Veterans And Civilians.

The flight-training component of Yavapai College's new Professional Airplane Pilot Flight Program will be offered by North-Aire Aviation, the two parties said Friday. Starting in January, this relationship allows both veterans and civilians to couple an Associate of Applied Science Degree with advanced flight certifications, providing a career path into the aviation industry. The program allows veterans who qualify for the post 9/11 GI Bill Program to take fixed wing flight courses through Yavapai College.

"Through Through our program's unique partnership with Yavapai College, veterans and civilians alike have access to an FAA-certified Part 141, Part 61 flight school through a public community college," said  North-Aire Aviation spokesperson Justin Scott.

North-Aire has been in business since 1973 as a Cessna pilot center providing private pilot through ATP certificates to students representing all 50 states and 47 countries. Other certificates offered include high altitude and aerobatic training as well as seaplane ratings and tail wheel endorsements.
