Training
pilots safely and successfully for over 15 years.
The first step in
becoming a pilot is earning your Private Pilot License. It is the foundation
on which other more advanced ratings rest. For those interested in careers
as pilots, the Private Pilot rating is a prerequisite to a Commercial
Pilot License and other subsequent ratings. For most individuals, however,
the Private Pilot rating is sufficient as it allows the holder to rent
aircraft, carry passengers, and conduct most any other non-commercial
activity. The basic cost of earning a Private License is outlined below.
These estimates represent the minimums required by the FAA. Actual flight
time varies and depends upon the skill of the pilot. |

It takes
40 hours to earn your Private Pilot License. The shortest amount of time
required to complete the license is about 2 weeks, although that is under
the most ideal conditions. That assumes that the student is devoting all
their time during that period to training and that they are flying two
to three times a day, 7 days a week. Most people who are completing the
training all at once take 4 to 5 weeks. This generally allows the student
to complete their training at a more reasonable pace and have better retention
of the training. Since all our instruction is done 'one on one,' the student
chooses the pace at which they learn. Students who are learning just for
fun often take half a year to complete the training at a leisurely pace.
