Accelerated 2-Week Private Pilot Program
Course Description
Earning your private pilot certificate in a compressed timeframe has tremendous benefits. Practicing daily allows you to become a natural at piloting as quickly as possible because you are building motor skills and muscle memory. In our Accelerated Private Pilot Program, we train daily flying three times per day with ground instruction throughout the day accomplishing the training in just under two weeks.
This program will be some of the most demanding training you will ever undergo. The airlines and the military train this way for a reason…it works! Retention with accelerated training is far superior compared to training that is spread out over several months and can save you as much as $5,000.00 to $10,000.00 over conventional flight training.
Most all of the flight schools in America practice a method called “Pay As You Go” which finds you struggling to get on the schedule and find an instructor that has a hole in their schedule. Without a structure of daily flights, it will take you between 60 – 75 hours. Based on average billing rates at those schools you can expect to spend around $20,000.00 plus ground school, books, and misc. items that could top $25,000.00. Most flight schools schedule you for only 2 – 4 lessons per week, leading to the national average of approximately 75 hours required to get a private pilot certificate.
When people dive into our accelerated flight training program, they are able to earn their certificate in far fewer hours, resulting in significant financial savings.
