GET TO KNOW THE SCHOOL
A closer look.
The University of Nebraska at Omaha’s Aviation Institute offers a Bachelor of Science in Aviation with a Professional Flight concentration. Academic study is coordinated with flight training through Revv Aviation at Council Bluffs and Oracle Aviation at Millard. The published sequence covers private, instrument, commercial, multiengine and CFI qualifications, with flight laboratories mapped into the degree. UNO also describes Redbird and Boeing 737 simulation resources. Flight-provider charges are paid separately from university tuition, books and UNO simulation fees. The university states that GI Bill funding cannot be used for this concentration, making a program-specific funding discussion essential before a student commits to the pathway.
Two external flight providers
UNO identifies Revv Aviation at Council Bluffs KCBF and Oracle Aviation at Millard KMLE as its flight-training providers.
Degree flight sequence
The catalog maps private, instrument, commercial, multiengine and CFI flight work into the Professional Flight concentration.
Separate training charges
The published cost explanation says flight-provider charges are paid directly to the provider and exclude UNO tuition, books and simulation fees.
Funding limitation
The flight-training information page expressly says GI Bill funding cannot be used on the Professional Flight concentration; applicants should confirm current options with UNO.
Published training options.
The school’s published options are summarized below. Each note explains the training type and what to clarify when comparing the school’s exact course.
Private pilot
A private-pilot training path. Compare the aircraft used, ground-school arrangements and how lessons progress from initial skills to practical-test preparation.
Instrument rating
Training focused on instrument flying, procedures and planning. Compare aircraft and simulator use, scheduling and the preparation expected before flight lessons.
Commercial pilot
A commercial-pilot training option. Ask which aircraft category, prerequisites, experience-building flights and practical-test preparation are included.
Multiengine certification
Training in multiengine aircraft. Confirm whether the course is an initial rating, an add-on or a transition, and which aircraft will be available.
Certified flight instructor
Training in teaching, lesson preparation and instructional flying. Ask which instructor qualification is included and how practice teaching is assessed.
Professional Flight bachelor’s degree
An academic pathway with its own entry and graduation requirements. Compare the flight qualifications, academic credits and flight fees included in your chosen track.
Ground school
Study and knowledge preparation. Confirm the delivery format, included materials, instructor support and any separate flight-training requirement.
Simulator training
Practice using a training device. Ask which device is used, whether an instructor is included and how the sessions support your particular course.
The catalog explicitly establishes the core CFI sequence. A program narrative also mentions instrument-instructor preparation; confirm that additional course with an advisor rather than assuming it is required or included.
Aircraft & training scope
Aircraft categories: Airplane
Aircraft models: A current model list was not established from the reviewed sources. Ask which aircraft or training device your course uses.
This profile covers UNO’s academic program and its two published Omaha-area flight-provider arrangements. Aircraft at the providers are not presented as university-owned or automatically interchangeable.
No specific flight-aircraft model was verified from these university pages. Airline pathways and restricted-ATP eligibility remain conditional.

TRAINING FIT
Our school review.
UNO may suit a student who wants a university aviation degree while training with one of two regional providers. That arrangement offers a choice, but it also creates separate scheduling and billing responsibilities. Compare provider location, aircraft and instructor availability as carefully as the academic program. Ask an advisor to reconcile any optional instructor additions with the catalog’s core sequence and to explain the exact coursework and training conditions for restricted-ATP eligibility.

Readable Reddit comments for University Of Nebraska At Omaha Aviation Institute in Omaha include personal training experiences. One aviation-program graduate describes the program as improving. Another former student reports delayed progress at their chosen flight partner and difficulty balancing flight study with classes. The discussion distinguishes the university from its training partners; individual partner experiences are not interchangeable. These are individual, self-selected accounts from the material publicly displayed, not a representative student survey. They offer practical leads for questions about your own course, but do not establish typical completion times, checkride results or current availability. Confirm the details with recent students before relying on the reported experience.
