Training Overview
 

In the air - Flight training takes place in the airplane. You'll learn in new Cessna Skyhawks - the best selling single-engine aircraft of all time. During your flight training, you'll learn the skills and gain experience necessary to safely operate an airplane on your own to get your Solo License™ and then pass your check ride for your Private Pilot certificate.

 

On the ground - You'll learn the bits of "book knowledge" you'll need to be a proficient pilot. During your ground school you will learn at your own pace using our state-of-the-art Computer Based Instruction (CBI) program that uses fully interactive graphics and full motion video. 

 

CBI provides a better way to learn. No books to lug around, no hurrying to class, or no cramming before your written exam.  With the CBI Ground School You'll learn everything you need to know – not only to pass your exam, but also to be a safe, knowledgeable, and competent pilot.  Study wherever you go. At home. At the office. Even while traveling.

You'll watch presentations by top aviation educators, see dramatic, enlightening in-flight footage, take interactive quizzes, learn interesting trivia, and prepare for upcoming flight lessons.
