Advantages of Accelerated Flight Training with Flying Academy

Save Time

The average pilot training program can take a few months and up to a year. With the accelerated course, you’re likely to complete all of your training in just a few weeks. With this shorter training program, student pilots train up to eight hours a day, five days a week, learning everything they need to know to become a safe and competent pilot.

Save Money

Save money by participating in the accelerated flight program instead of the traditional one. With Flying Academy’s accelerated program, not only will you not repeat lessons that often, but you will also move through your training faster saving you money. You will also spend less money for accommodation and other costs that come with your relocation for this short period of time!

Training Locations

One of the main factors of flight training delay is poor weather conditions. But with our strategic location in Van Nuys, California, or the picturesque Corona, California- The weather is more than accommodating most of the year!

Great for Self Starters

Those participating in the accelerated private pilot program will likely need to learn all or most of the written test standards before training starts. When your training starts, you’ll hop right into the plane and start flying, working toward the minimum 40-hours of flight time needed to become a private pilot.

Requirements

Students need to obtain a FAA medical certificate, minimum 3rd class or better, prior to enrollment to the program.

The students will have to go to IACRA and register so they can get an FTN# (not necessary to apply to be a student pilot, just need to create a profile).

A significant part of your theoretical training will be carried out remotely from wherever you may be prior to starting your practical training. This will enable you to start your training quickly without delay, which will provide a strong foundation of theoretical knowledge.

Students will have an option to attend Flying Academy Online Classes or other ground preparation portals such as Flying Academy’s eLearning system.

Get ahead: Take the FAA Knowledge Exam before starting your training with Flying Academy.

The Private Pilot knowledge exam requires an endorsement from a certified flight or ground instructor confirming that you are ready to take the test. Students who wish to take the Private Pilot test will receive an endorsement from our CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) once they have successfully completed the Flying Academy Private Pilot Online Ground School or provide at least three practice knowledge exams with a score greater than 80%.

Scheduling the FAA Knowledge Exam

If you obtained an endorsement to take the FAA Knowledge Exam and you registered yourself in the IACRA system and obtained the FTN#, you are ready to schedule your exam. FAA Testing Centers are located all around the United States, schedule your exam here: faa.psiexams.com
