ATP is now VA approved!

Back in February of 2008, I went to Panama City. The class right before mine, January 2008 class was in the Part 141 private pilot course. The February 2008 class did Part 61. All other classes while I was there did the private course under Part 61. ATP took over an older 141 flight school that was there in the building and they inherited two older guys who were 141 instructors. I guess that's why they were doing 141 for a little bit.

How is the ppl 141 if it's not VA approved?

The simplest answer is this:

Part 141 does not automatically equal "VA approved".

PPL Training can be conducted in either Part 61 or Part 141 FAA Approved training.

That being said, the VA does not provide educational funding for any Private Pilot Training even if it is conducted under part 141.
