What kind of ground school is involved in learning to fly?
Our FAA, 141 Approval is based on the Jeppesen Guided Discovery Ground School that is integrated closely with the flight training through the continual use of a course syllabus. Preceding every flight lesson is a required DVD, textbook and workbook combination ground session. The idea here is to be comprehensively prepared for the airplane experience before it happens (save money by being prepared). Airplane time is expensive and the distractions aloft make airplanes terrible classrooms! If you have read about it and experienced it on DVD beforehand it all makes sense. There are 26 total flight lessons and for every hour in the plane there are approximately three hours of ground study. Proper preparation insures that your time in the airplane will be very efficient and cost effective. Additionally, you will always know where you are in your training sequence and what is coming next. Planes are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis with our internet reservation system.
