Experienced Instructors
The hands-on aspect of flight training flight instruction is all about learning how to control and manoeuvre an aircraft safely and efficiently. Student pilots typically work one-on-one with a certified flight instructor to develop and cultivate in-flight procedures and practical piloting skills by learning how to control and operate the aircraft under various conditions and in different scenarios.
Throughout the flight training program, the Flight Instructor will work closely with student pilots to help them master the required skills and knowledge using demonstration, feedback and guidance techniques. This will include a pre-flight ‘briefing’ on the manoeuvres the lesson is going to cover and a ‘debrief’ at the end of each lesson. Don’t underestimate the value of a good flight instructor – your instructors are crucial to developing the skills needed to become a good pilot!
Comprehensive Training
Ground school provides students with the necessary theoretical knowledge to become successful pilots. Ground school typically consists of classroom or online based classes that provide an educational environment for students to learn about the principles of flight, the science behind flight and more technical aircraft-specific information. Exams are used to assess knowledge and feature a multiple choice format with above-average pass rates required.
