zero to pilot
Understand your path to becoming a pilot.
1:Discovery Flight
Book a discovery flight to ensure that flying is the right fit for you! This 45 min flight allows you to experience the joy of flight, taking in the beautiful scenery from above. Take control of the plane with a certified flight instructor to see what flying is all about.
2:Medical
Once you have determined that flying is for you, schedule an appointment with a local Airmen Medical Examiner (AME) to ensure that you are medically fit to fly and continue flight training! This will save you time and money. Don't worry, I will work directly with you to help you get this done.
3:Training
Once you acquire your medical certificate through your local Airmen Medical Examiner (AME), we will put together a training program designed specifically for you. To acquire your Private Pilots License in a matter of months, expect to fly twice a week accompanied with home study material. If that is too much for you, I can develop a custom plan to fit your needs.
4:Solo
After your instructor has trained you to safely fly the aircraft, you will embark on a short solo flight! This is a big moment in your pilot career as it will be your first time operating the airplane alone in the cockpit. Very exciting!
5:Final Prep
After your solo flight, you and your instructor will continue to prepare you for your FAA knowledge test and the FAA practical test.
6:Check Ride
After months of training, your hard work will pay off on check ride day when you schedule time with a Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE) to perform the practical test consisting of ground and flight examination sections. After passing, you are officially a Private Pilot!
