Re: \"Bob The Salesman\" At Pan Am\'s Phoenix Campus
About the part-141 thing. Looking back, who really cares. Part-141 is a great a great marketing tool, but having been a CFI I think it's overrated.
While a CFI, we had a choice between taking a student thru part-61 and part-141 and after I learned what I'd have to do to satisfy part-141 requirements in terms of paperwork, bureaucracy and other 'clerical' duties, I normally just took them thru part-61.
Is part 141 bad? Nope. Is it good? Sure. But if you're not looking to use VA benefits for flight training, I wouldn't worry that much about part-61 and part-141 status.
