The Private Pilot's license has been the traditional entry into flying for many years. It allows flying a wide variety of aircraft almost anywher in the world. Fly day or night, with friends or family to over 3,000 airports in the US alone. Many people use their planes not only for fun, but for business, too. Within certain FAA guidelines, reimbursement is possible for airplane travel expenses just like car mileage.
You don't have to own your own plane, either...almost every airport in the country rents them. If you really "get the bug", you can join a flying club, or partner with a friend to share expenses of ownership.
What's more, you don't have to have all your flight training costs up front. You can either "pay as you go", paying for each lesson, one at a time, or take advantage of the special Pilot Flight Training Financing that we offer.
The basic Private Pilot license includes a number of different training elements including classroom and book work, flight training with your instructor and solo flight. You don't have to be a "rocket scientist" to figure things out, most aviation education is common sense. And flying is fun for all ages. You might want to begin in high school, or you might be a senior citizen. Men and women of all ages come through our doors.
