We offer access to flying resources.\u00a0 There are flying classes and Licenses for Pilots at all levels.<\/p>\n
If you are just starting out, you will want to complete an introductory Flying Lesson<\/span><\/a> first.\u00a0 The flight time can count towards a Solo Pilot License (sm). When you have achieved competence to fly solo, you will be able to make local flights by yourself. And fly to other airports with your flight instructor’s approval. Most students can complete the training for the Solo Pilot License (sm) with 15 – 35 hours of flying time<\/p>\n There are virtually no requirements to begin flight training. To obtain a Solo Pilot License\u00a0Endorsement, you can either use your Driver’s License, or pass a basic ‘FAA medical’ test, as evidence of medical eligibility.<\/p>\n When you use a modern 2-seat Sport Plane training aircraft, the average cost of this flight training<\/a> may range between $6,000 and $12,500<\/p>\n Sport Pilot License flight training is for those pilots who want to be able to fly, with a passenger — in an airplane classified as a Light Sport Aircraft or LSA. Such as, for example the Cessna-162 Skycatcher or a Czech SportCruiser airplane.<\/p>\n To obtain a Sport Pilot License from the Federal Aviation Administration [FAA], you will need a minimum of 20 hours of flight time. This must include 15 hours with an Instructor and 5 hours of Solo Flight. The real-world average flight time to complete the training for this certification may range from 35 to 45 hours. Previous hours flown for your Solo Pilot License can count towards this certificate.<\/p>\n There are almost no requirements to begin training. Sport Pilots can use a valid U.S. driver’s license as evidence of medical eligibility. A Sport Pilot must then comply with any limitations on the driver’s license.<\/p>\nPrerequisites.<\/h3>\n
