In vic Morehead City, Tradewind Aviation out of EWN and Jacksonville Flying Service out of OAJ. MRH is a nice airport but the school there is pt 61 only.
theres one in burlington thats not too far away from me. im thinking of doing my commercial at a 141. the idea of saving 60 hours of TT is very appealing
Well.. I need a pt 141 school because I'm going to use the GI Bill to finance most of my training. I'm waiting now for the school at EWN to get approval. (OAJ is just too far for me to commute). So I'm not currently enrolled as a student. But my understanding of the 141 enrollment process (and I'm just a PP-ASEL, no instrument rating, and I'm not an instructor) is that you're going to turn your logbook into the CP of the flight school for a logbook review, and then fly an evaluation ride with the CP. You'll get some credit for previous experience, but you'll still have to follow the 141 commercial syllabus, and will end up with more than 190, but less than 250 hours at CP-ASEL/AMEL.
Which is a long winded way of saying you really need to run the numbers vs your local pt 61 school if there's one closer (including commute milage).

(In my case, 60% of training costs reimbursed is kinda a nobrainer, but YMMV)
