These courses are strongly encouraged if you or someone you know will be obtaining either a Private Pilot License or an Instrument Rating. We will do an accelerated version of our ground schools with classes meeting twice per week, over six weeks. Class will be taught by our flight instructors, all of whom are actively teaching both flight & ground training with us. We recommend attending class as you begin flight training or concurrently if you’ve already begun flying. It is also a great way to meet other students and develop friendships with people of all ages going through the same experience you are. This class is a cost-saving alternative to much of the ground instruction you will need with your instructor. This course will develop your understanding of what to study, teach you the expectations of knowledge, skill and judgment to become a private or sport pilot, and prepare you for the oral portion of the checkride. Each class will go in depth on Tasks in the Airman Certification Standards (ACS), which are the standards you must meet or exceed during the final examination (checkride) to earn your pilot license. Our class differs from others in that our focus is more on the knowledge to pass the checkride (the final flight test), rather than just pass the written test.

We offer a new style of Ground School – one designed to prepare you for the knowledge and judgment required to be a safe, competent pilot capable of making informed decisions.
