FAA Pilot Training

If you're ready to become a certified pilot without earning a college degree, we offer rigorous training with flexible scheduling. Many of our students are not available during weekdays and conduct their training during weekends and evenings -- you will schedule training one-on-one with your instructor.

We provide training that will prepare you to earn the following certifications and ratings:

• Private Pilot Certification: Pilot an airplane that you are qualified to fly under specified weather conditions.

• Instrument Rating: This add-on certificate certifies a private pilot to fly in unfavorable weather conditions, including rain, clouds or heavy fog. 

• Commercial Pilot Rating: This continuation of training allows you to be paid to fly an aircraft. 

• Certified Instructor Rating: This rating means you are authorized by the FAA to instruct student pilots.
