Private Pilot Certification Course for Airplane Single-Engine Land.

This is our entry-level pilot program. A private pilot rating allows you to fly under visual flight rules (VFR). Under VFR, the weather must be sufficient to allow the pilot to visually navigate the aircraft and to visually maintain separation from obstacles and other aircraft. Your training will include flight instruction and ground instruction in preparation for taking the private pilot FAA knowledge exam and private pilot FAA practical test.
