PRIVATE PILOT COURSE
If you have made the decision to learn to fly, then our "Cleared for Takeoff" course is the ticket to get you there. "Cleared for Takeoff" is approved by the FAA under Part 141 of the Federal Aviation Regulations and provides you with a complete training package. You can pay as you go, or take advantage of our special package price.
Featuring the Cessna Integrated Flight Training System - the most comprehensive and fun private pilot flight school program available utilizing Cessna's interactive multimedia Computer-Based Instruction curriculum.
The "Cleared for Takeoff" Course Package Price includes:
The FAA requires a student pilot at an approved pilot school to complete at least 35 hours of flight time prior to taking the practical flight test. The cost of this minimum flight time plus 35 hours of instruction is approximately $5000. Most customers require more than these minimum flight and instruction times to prepare for the written, oral, and practical flight tests. The national averages for FAA approved pilot schools are 45 hours dual flight (with your instructor), 10 hours of solo flight, and 20 hours of ground instruction prior to obtaining the private pilot's certificate.
Our packages are designed to include aircraft and instructor charges that are 5 hours less than the national averages. The actual cost of additional training, if any is required, is customized to the individual. This minimizes total cost. The packages also include most of the additional supplies that will be required, such as charts and a headset. This approach results in a course price that more fairly represents the total cost required to obtain the private pilot's certificate.
