What is Accelerated Flight Training?
Accelerated flight training is an intensive program designed to teach piloting skills and aeronautical knowledge in a shorter than normal period of time. Normally, a flight student taking a couple of flying lessons a week will earn a Private Pilot Certificate in 5-6 months. With an accelerated flight training program, a student pilot flying every day, 2-3 times per day, and attending ground school and studying in between flight lessons, can accomplish the same thing in as little as two weeks.
What Are the Benefits of Accelerated Flight Training?
Accelerated flight training has historically been used in the military and airlines due to the fact that it has proven to be an effective method of flight training, and specifically because it:
- Saves time
- Saves money
- Builds stronger Piloting skills
What is Involved in Accelerated Flight Training?
A commitment to devote your full time and effort to flight training as long as necessary to complete your course and to take the checkride. Throughout the time you are in the accelerated flight training your days will need to be devoted to a combination of flying, ground school and/or studying. The time required is based on your rate of progress and weather conditions.
Typical completion times, depending the certificate being pursued:
- Private pilot certificate – as few as 14 days, but anticipate a month due to weather.
- Instrument Rating – as few as 14 days, but anticipate a month due to weather.
- Commercial Pilot Certificate – as few as 7 days, but anticipate 2 weeks due to weather.
