Experience the thrill of flying and
explore various aspects of air travel
- from the design and construction
of aircraft to the cutting-edge technology
behind military, commercial, and general
aviation. Learn how we maintain the
safe operation of our National Airspace
System. Most importantly, complete
a flight training course for the ultimate
achievement: piloting a plane on your
own. You’ll emerge with confidence,
knowing the sky’s the limit.
Take
the pilot’s seat in FLIGHT
TRAINING. What
goes into planning a successful
flight? An incredible number of
considerations, including weather,
communications, and emergency preparations.
Learn all this and more as you
gain the knowledge and confidence
necessary to handle typical in-air
situations. Our hands-on learning
environment will give you a greater
understanding of the challenges
facing professional aviators. The
training culminates with you in
the cockpit as you pilot your first
flight under the guidance of an
expert instructor.
Start training at
the FAA GROUND SCHOOL.
Learn about an aircraft’s instruments
and construction, and the aerodynamic
forces that affect its flight. You’ll
have access to the latest technology
for tracking weather patterns, predicting
aircraft performance, and planning
your actual flight. This is the training
required to prepare for the FAA Private
Knowledge Exam – your key to
takeoff.
