What are the Steps to Flight Training?
Practical part – flying: American rules and regulations precisely define what minimum flight experience you will need to become a certified pilot. For example, for private pilots it is a minimum of 40 flight hours, which consist of at least 30 hours with an instructor, 10 solo flight hours, etc. Not everyone is able to learn all the required skills within this prescribed minimum. When your flight training is intensive (you fly several times a week), you can usually complete the course within the minimum prescribed flight hours. However, if you fly less frequently (some people can not fly more than once a week or once every two weeks), you most probably need some extra flight hours, since you will spend a lot of time reviewing already forgotten techniques.
