PRIVATE PILOT CERTIFICATE

INTRODUCTORY FLIGHT

Experience your first flight
with our friendly instructors.
You will familiarize yourself
with the basics of flying a
high-performance aircraft.

ORIENTATION

After completing your discovery
flight and deciding to pursue
training, you will have a briefing
with your instructor to prepare
for your first official lesson.

CONSISTENT TRAINING

Instructors will continually
monitor your progress and approve
students to fly solo solely at their
discretion. Typically within 25-30
hours of training students are
proficient enough to conduct flights
with little help from instructors

solo flight.

will continue working with
your instructor - completing at
