The Private Pilots License is for most of us our first step into the world of Aviation. Actually the name of the license is misleading in many ways as it leaves people thinking that there are superior skills or knowledge that a Commercial or Airline Pilot has as compared to the Private Pilot. This is simply not true! The only difference between a Private Pilot and a Commercial Pilot is that the Private pilot is not allowed to except payment for their flying. Really, that’s all there is. Whether you are flying a small Cessna 172 like we use in training at our school, or you are flying a brand new A380, we all share the same sky, the same airports, we all fly using the same rules and regulations and are required to have the same basic knowledge and skills to safely enjoy our passion for flight. No matter if you are only looking to fly for fun and relaxation, a faster and easier form of business transportation, or you are looking forward to a lifetime career with the Airlines, the skills and knowledge you will gain though your Private Pilot Training will give you the fundamentals and base for which you will take off and enjoy both the dreams and reality of flight.
