01 Overview
Wayman College of Aeronautics at a glance.
Wayman College of Aeronautics, rebranded from Wayman Aviation Academy in July 2024, has trained pilots in South Florida since 1987. Founded in 1987, it has trained students from more than 80 countries, and the school says its graduates fly for over 70 airlines, including American, Delta, United, JetBlue and Korean Air.
The college trains at North Perry Airport in Pembroke Pines, Florida, where it runs its own FAA Part 145 repair station and a testing centre. The fleet exceeds 40 aircraft, from Cessna 152s and 172s in both analogue and G1000 configurations to Tecnam P2006T and Piper Seneca twins, supported by more than 58 instructors at a 1:4 student-to-instructor ratio.
Wayman holds FAA Part 141 approval with R-ATP authorisation, letting graduates qualify for a restricted ATP at reduced hours. International students can choose F-1 or M-1 visa programmes, and the school runs a DGCA India Pilot Program that it says meets the basic DGCA rules so that students can convert their licences after returning to India. The school names SkyWest and Silver Airways among its airline partners, and the 2024 rebrand added Associate of Science degrees in aeronautics, aviation management and aviation maintenance management.
