Developed by a team of accomplished pilot-instructors, our programs draw on decades of aviation expertise to provide you with industry-leading education and training.
Part 61 Training
For those who prefer a flexible learning path, our Part 61 program provides the same rigorous course options as a Part 141 program but with additional adaptability. Part 61 allows for a wider range of aircraft and a customizable schedule to suit individual needs, making it an excellent choice for students balancing training with other responsibilities. With competitive hourly rates, this program provides top-notch instruction without compromising on quality or convenience.
