This educational benefit may be used for flight training. The VA reimbursement is typically approximately 60% and can be used for training following receipt of a Private Pilot Certificate.
MGIB benefits may be used for up to 10 years from the date of last discharge or release from active duty. (The 10 year period can be extended under special circumstances. Contact the VA for details).
Superior Flight School’s 141 Program is approved for Veterans training for reimbursement under the Chapter 30, 33, 1606 and 1607 for veterans eligible for GI Bill® educational benefits.
At Superior, our Part 141 programs beyond the Private Pilot Certificate are VA benefit-eligible; however, when using benefits vocationally, the annual academic year cap applies, with Instrument and Commercial ratings counted as a single combined rating under VA guidelines. Contact the VA for details.
