Private Pilot Course

With a Private Pilot Certificate, you can fly yourself and your friends and family around day or night but you can’t get paid to fly. How would you like to fly to the Bahamas or Key West for the weekend?

Training options:

Pay by the Hour
$160/hour plane rental, $60/hour for ground/flight instruction
There are no time restrictions for completion so you may learn at your own pace and you can purchase supplies as you need them.

Private Pilot Course - Package
$10,500
The course must be completed within 90 days and includes everything you need to become a private pilot except the medical exam and renter’s insurance. We recommend you get your medical exam prior to starting training although it isn’t required until you solo (fly by yourself).

Accelerated Private Pilot Course - Package
$10,500
This course uses the same curriculum as if you were learning at your own pace. The difference is you get unlimited ground instruction and one-on-one guidance from a dedicated instructor. The instructor will teach you everything you need to know and assist in prepping you for the written and oral exam.
