From your first flight to the airline cockpit

Turn your dream of becoming an airline pilot into reality with our ATPL training, guiding you step by step from your first flight to the cockpit of a commercial airliner. You will obtain a frozen ATPL(A) licence - the licence that opens the door to an aviation career worldwide.

It isn't a training you finish in a month. It's a modular programme that gradually takes you through every qualification a commercial pilot needs - PPL, night rating, instrument flying, multi-engine training and simulator sessions - with the same school and the same instructors from start to finish.

The schedule is largely based on your availability and financial situation: you can pause between modules, and pay for your training as you fly.

Before you decide

  • The programme runs 18 to 24 months full-time, from your first PPL lesson to a frozen ATPL(A).
  • You only need the medical examination before your first solo flight, not at the start - though a Class 1 medical is worth booking early.
  • You don't pay the full amount up front - you pay module by module, as you fly. Paying for the whole programme in advance gets you a 5% discount.
  • ATPL theory runs online, alongside your practical training - you don't have to sit all the exams at the end.
