Lawsuit against Yavapai College, North-Aire Aviation to go forward
PRESCOTT – A federal judge has denied a motion to dismiss a case against North-Aire Aviation that claims North-Aire and Yavapai College conspired to defraud the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The whistleblower complaint was filed by Dan Hamilton, the former director of aviation programs at the college, and, as with another lawsuit he’s filed against YC and Guidance Academy which deals with helicopter flight training, the suit alleges that the school and North-Aire worked together to enroll students who were ineligible to take fixed-wing airplane pilot courses to make it possible for real students to receive VA funding to be trained.
It’s called the 85/15 rule, and it says that 15 percent of a class must be made up of students who are not VA benefit recipients.
Hamilton claims that, from the time the program started in 2012, North-Aire never complied with the 85/15 rule.
