| Have you ever dreamed of becoming a private pilot?
Have you always thought that becoming a pilot is just too expensive or
required too much of your time? Those are no longer true. We can help
you obtain your Private Pilot License in an efficient amount of time
at very competitive prices.
Why do you need a private pilot license? A private pilot license is
needed to act as pilot-in-command of an aircraft carrying passengers.
The private pilot license provides you more flexibility and freedom
than the recreational pilot license. Obtaining a private pilot license
will take roughly two months of time when training at a continuous
pace. A private pilot license will cost between $3,000 - $5,000
depending on the length of the training time. The requirements for the private pilot license are a minimum of 40
hours of flight time, 20 hours of flight instruction, and ten hours of
solo flight. These are minimums as required by law. On average, a
private pilot applicant will have between 50 - 60 hours of flight time
before taking the checkride.
Below is a detailed list of the requirements for the Private Pilot
License:
- 17 years of age and be able to read, speak, write, and
understand the English language.
