To start learning how to fly, we suggest scheduling our Introductory Lesson. The lesson lasts about 15 minutes, complete with preparation time of the aircraft and displaying how to properly handle the plane, giving you about 25 minutes of flying time. With the Introductory Discovery Flight<\/a> being $165, it is a great way to get a taste of the program, and will thus set expectations for upcoming lessons you decide to enroll in.

The Commercial Pilot License program consists of completing the Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, and CPL courses. As a student, you will be working thoroughly with a single instructor for your duration and will have a personalized schedule based on individual availability and desired pace.<\/p>

With the Commercial Pilot License, you will be able to earn an income as a pilot, however, it should be noted that to become an airline pilot, it is required that you must complete the training for Multi-Engine, and in addition, log a total of 1500 flight hours.<\/p>

A quick and rewarding way to achieve the number of hours required by airlines is to become a\u00a0Certified Flight Instructor<\/a>. To become a CFI, you must complete the accompanying course.\u00a0If you choose to go this route, upon completing the CFI course, you can enroll into our\u00a0<\/span>Airline Cadet Program<\/span><\/a>. This program offers our students the fastest way to work as commercial airline pilots, as well as offering partial tuition reimbursement for prior training. In the meantime, you would also be working as an instructor at Fly Legacy Aviation while building the required flight time for the airline.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
