Our Frequently Asked Questions

To begin flight training, you must be at least 16 years old to solo and 17 to obtain a Private Pilot License (PPL). You’ll also need to pass a basic medical exam and be able to read, speak, write, and understand English. No prior aviation experience is required.

The timeline varies depending on your schedule and weather conditions, but most of our students earn their Private Pilot License in 1 to 3 months if training consistently. The FAA requires a minimum of 40 flight hours, though most students need around 50–70 hours to be fully prepared.

Flight training costs can vary based on aircraft type and how frequently you train. On average, earning a Private Pilot License ranges from $10,000 to $14,000. We offer personalized training schedules to help make it manageable.
