Pilot training FAQs

Only a few basics as we provide most of what you'll need. An aviation headset (you'll really benefit getting a pair with noise cancelling even though these are more expensive), an E6B flight computer, and a kneeboard. We can guide you in your choice of these. And you need a desire to enjoy yourself. Learning to fly can sometimes be stressful, but, at the heart of it, it's a lot of fun!

We have helped many students get to where they need to be in a timely manner. Please refer to our New Student Packet & Student Policies for more details.

Yes, with a few limitations. We offer a few 30 day Guaranteed Program options if you wish to fly everyday with an instructor. Otherwise, you will be placed on the schedule at between 1-3 times per week until you are able to coordinate more frequently with your instructor. We are open 7 days per week and at times to fit in with your schedule.

We have an online King’s ground school for $400. (Optional)

At the moment, we don’t have ground school classes, just individual one-on-one training with our flight instructors.

We are a Part 141 and a Part 61 flight school. You will be placed in the 141 program unless otherwise specified. Under 141 training, you will have progress checks throughout your training.

Training is done as needed. We have single-engine C172S airplanes at $155 per hour, and a Seneca I and a Seneca II at $330 per hour (fuel included). Our instructors are $75 per hour.

We currently hold availability of 7 days per week from 5am-11pm.

We do not use a specific curriculum if enrolled in Part 61. Most of our instructors are “career flight instructors” so they have many years and hours of experience of flight instruction.

If you are enrolled in Part 141, you will receive the curriculum with your ground school.

Yes. We regularly have students (they're really private pilots at that stage) going through our Commercial Certificate course. Many also complete their CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) rating as part of that, and go on to work for us.
