What is a Private pilot Certificate?

A Private Pilot Certificate is much like an ordinary driver’s license. It allows you to fly an airplane and carry passengers anywhere you want. Although you cannot carry passengers for compensation or hire, operating expenses may be shared with other travelers in the airplane. Most pilots use aviation as a gateway to enter an entirely different world of peace and enjoyment. Also, imagine the obvious benefits of flying your own airplane on trips…. No more large, crowded airport terminals, lost or damaged luggage, complicated and firm airline schedules, over booked flights, long lines at security checkpoints, etc. Earning your private pilot certificate will open doors to a new and exciting world. Check out our Pilot Services page to learn more about the Private Pilot, Instrument, Commercial, and CFI certificate.

A private pilot certificate allows you to fly an airplane day or night in visual flight conditions and carry passengers. While operating expenses may be shared with your passengers, you may not get paid for the flight.
