one of my friends owns a flight school in Louisville KY
He wants to expand his school by inviting foreign students.
how can he issue i-20/DS-2019 to a foreign student?
what is the complete step by step procedure?
how long does it take get the permission?

Your reference for a step-by-step application to qualify as a school that is authorized to issue SEVIS I-20 forms is 8 CFR 214.3.

Run a search on that reference or go to the source I pasted below.

Certification begins with the filing of form I-17 with CIS.

Certification petitions require that a complete Form I–17, Petition for Approval of School for Attendance by Non-immigrant Student, including supplements A and B and bearing original signatures, be included with the school’s submission of supporting documentation.

It’s a long drawn out process which usually calls for the assistance of an immigration attorney.
