Default Anyone Know How To Check Flight School Record

I'm looking to find out more information about a local flight school, and I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can find any information about them? Is there a site(s) gives information on FAA actions or enforcements? Thank you.

Is it a part 61 or 141 school? The FSDO that oversees the operation should be able to answer your questions.

What type of aircraft do they fly? If they have an accident / incident history, you can search the NTSB aviation database ....

Purely speculative, but, I would be surprised if the school's FSDO would tell you about actions or enforcements short of making a formal "Freedom of Information Act" request for that information.

What about just making general inquiries around the airport at which the school operates?

Good luck in your quest!

Good idea, didn't even think about just asking around the airport for info. I may try the FAA or FSDO, but you are probably right about them. Thank you!

Hang around the ramp, talk to their other students.
