Private Pilot License

Private Pilot Course

This course is for students who wish to learn to fly for recreational purposes. A private pilot certificate allows the pilot to fly with, or without passengers (cannot be used to fly for hire). This certificate is also the first step in becoming a professional pilot as well.

The following courses are based on FAA minimum times, or the average completion time when a minimum is not prescribed. Individual completion time may vary depending on training requirements and ability. The cost of the Private Pilot course can vary significantly based on the student's aptitude. We offer both 141 and 61 options currently depending on your needs.
