Question: Is age a factor in learning to fly?
Answer: I have students of all ages from 13 to 78. The ground school (book learning) is not difficult, it is just different than regular school work and in most cases a lot more interesting and fun.
Answer: Yes, all training is individualized for each student and their schedule. Although ideally, a student learns best and remembers better by flying more frequently, some students fly less frequently because of time or expense. All fees are on a "pay as you go" basis, no money up front.
Question: I am interested in a career in aviation. How far can I go
toward fulfilling my goals?
Answer: Many students of aviation get their private license at their
local airport so they are more eligible for scholarships to one of the over 200 aviation Colleges or Universities that have aviation programs. Some students elect to complete all their training and experience locally for a corporate pilot career, however it easier to obtain a job with the aviation degree from a two or four year accredited college.
