First Step In Aviation

Private Pilot License (PPL)

​

         The Private Pilot Certificate (PPL) is the first stop into the world of aviation. It is similar to earning  your Driver’s license. As a private pilot you can fly an airplane and carry passengers (friends, family, co-workers, etc) but not for compensation or hire. The private pilot certificate is the first step for those interested in a career in aviation. In here, Sky Safety offers you a well-organized, comprehensive, yet flexible training program that is safe, fun, and structured to help you achieve your goals.

Besides flight training portion, additional costs may include pilot supplies(headset, books, etc.) and exams. Please prepare $900-$1500 for these additional items. Please also keep in mind that the flight training cost is estimated based on average hours of a frequently flying student. Actual cost may vary depends on student performance.
