To pursue training, you must be at least 16 years old, be able to read and write the English language, and hold at least a third class medical (we can help guide you on where to get this if you need it!)
I am ___ tall, will I fit okay in the plane?
If you are between 5'-6'3" you shouldn't have any problems fitting in our planes and seeing over the instrument panel. Some smaller pilots choose to bring a seat cushion (either to sit higher or more forward) to achieve an ideal sight-picture/view/reach.
How long does it take to complete the Private Pilot Certicate?
According to AOPA, most students will earn their license in 60-80 hours. We strive to beat this, but it largely depends on motivation and how much time you can dedicate to studying.
Can I bring a friend/family member/passenger flying?
Absolutely; talk to your instructor ahead of time to make sure the weight and balance is within limits.
Is ground school required?
The short answer is no. How much ground school you schedule is entirely up to you - some people learn better one-on-one with an instructor, others prefer self-study. Our instructors are well-equipped to teach you starting with the basics, and/or just answer questions you bring from independent study.
I already have my private, what should my next step be?
