45 Flight Hours
Dual and solo hours in modern single-engine trainers with glass cockpits.
What It Entails
Your First License, Taught The Airline Way
The Private Pilot License is where every captain begins. Over roughly 45 flight hours in our Cessna 172 trainers you will learn takeoffs and landings, stalls and slow flight, cross-country navigation, night operations and radio work — all under an airline-seasoned instructor.
Ground school runs alongside flying, so theory clicks the same week you practice it in the air. Most students solo within their first 15 hours and finish checkride-ready in four to six months of steady training.
