Flight Academy additional information
The cost of your flight academy training is affected by a lot of factors:
- The airplane you choose to learn to fly in.
- How many instruction hours you require.
- How well you study and how talented you are (and therefore how many instruction hours you require).
- We use flight simulators extensively to reduce your flight academy training cost overall.
The time frame is a factor as well (learning to fly in a shorter time span is more effective and thus more efficient financially). Please keep in mind your progress and completion time (and therefore your training cost) much depends on your talent, enthusiasm and your study habits.
