ADVANCE FLYING ACADEMY
If you're interested in beginner flying lessons, there are several steps to get started. Here’s a brief overview:
1. Choose a Flight School
- Look for a Certified Flight School. These schools offer structured lessons and are accredited by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or your local aviation authority.
- You can search for flight schools near you through websites like FAA’s flight school directory (in the US) or similar resources in other countries.
2. Select a Flight Instructor
- Choose a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI). A good CFI will guide you through the basics of flying, including pre-flight checks, navigation, and emergency procedures.
3. Start with a Discovery Flight
- Many schools offer a discovery flight, which is an introductory lesson where you can experience flying with an instructor and get a feel for it.
- This is a great way to see if flying is right for you before committing to a full training program.
4. Ground School
- In addition to flying, you’ll need to attend ground school to learn the theoretical aspects of aviation: aerodynamics, navigation, weather, flight planning, and regulations.
5. Flight Training
- You’ll learn how to control the aircraft, take off, land, navigate, and handle different in-flight scenarios. Your instructor will teach you progressively more advanced maneuvers.
6. Log Your Hours
- To get your Private Pilot License (PPL), you'll need a minimum number of flying hours (typically 40 hours, but many students take more to be well-prepared).
7. Take a Medical Exam
- You’ll need to pass a medical exam with an FAA-certified medical examiner to ensure you’re fit to fly. The class 3 medical is standard for private pilots.
8. Take the Written Exam
- After completing your training and studying the materials, you'll need to pass a knowledge test (written exam) that covers aviation theory.
9. Take the Check Ride
- The final step to earning your PPL is the check ride, where you demonstrate your flying skills to an FAA examiner (or equivalent in your country).
10. Additional Ratings (Optional)
- If you plan to fly more advanced aircraft or take passengers for hire, you might want to pursue additional ratings such as Instrument, Commercial, or Multi-engine ratings.
Costs
- Flight lessons can vary depending on location, the type of aircraft, and your instructor, but expect to pay around $100-$200 per hour for a basic single-engine plane.
