COURSES OFFERED
Private Pilot
The Private Pilot Certificate, internationally referred to as the Private Pilot License (PPL), allows students to obtain the foundational knowledge and skills for all future aircraft pilot training. As a Private Pilot, you can fly an airplane day and night in visual flight conditions and carry passengers (friends, family, co-workers, etc.). You cannot fly for paid compensation or hire. However, you can share the operating expenses with your passengers.
Requirements:
-Be at least 16 Years Old to Solo
-Must be 17 Years Old to earn Certificate
-Read, speak, write, and understand English
-Able to obtain an FAA 3rd Class Medical (Prior to Solo)

The flight lessons in the course provide pilots the knowledge to rely solely on instruments to navigate the aircraft in situations where they cannot rely on visual instincts.

-Must be 17 Years Old to earn Certificate
-Hold at least a current Private Pilot Certificate
-Read, speak, write, and understand English

Flight medical
You will need a medical certificate before flying solo in an airplane. We suggest you get your medical certificate before beginning flight training. This will alert you to any condition that would prevent you from becoming a pilot before you pay for lessons.
To obtain an FAA medical, you will need to visit an Air Medical Examiner (AME). For information regarding the FAA Medical, check out our Pilot Medical Resources page for information on local AME's and requirements.
