DON´T WORK, COME FLY

Private and business trips only by plane!

There is nothing more beautiful than deciding and taking a trip tomorrow to Croatia, Vienna or “just” a weekend in the Alps or skiing in the Tatras. Air travel has its own charm and most importantly: it’s achievable and very affordable today.

safety first

You can take the PPL training on an aircraft equipped with a parachute rescue system

We are one of the few schools that can provide full PPL(A) pilot training on the Cruiser PS28 aircraft equipped with a parachute rescue system.

Choose which aircraft you will fly in training

You can choose either a 2 seater Cruiser PS 28 or a larger 4 seater Cessna 172 for your training. You can try both aircraft at the beginning of your training and then decide which aircraft you are more comfortable flying.

We have only new and modern planes with the best equipment in the cockpit

Cruiser PS 28

The most suitable aircraft for initial PPL(A) pilot training. Two seats, glass cockpit. Cheaper option.

Cessna 172 SP

You can also take the training on a larger four-seater aircraft.

People are the most valuable thing we have.

The best instructors with a friendly attitude are the most valuable thing we have.

Why should you choose the training in our flight school?

...because we love what we do

You will fly only new and well-equipped aircraft

We love new, modern and well-equipped aircraft. We were sure from the very beginning that old planes are not what we want to fly and the few hundred crowns difference in price is not worth it.

Expect a relaxed and friendly attitude

Individual and friendly attitude to each client is the reason why more and more pilots fly with us. We founded the pilot school for our own and our students' enjoyment and we never wanted to turn our business into a licence factory or a big school for foreign students.

Training directly in Prague near the metro station Letňany

A great advantage is that you can complete the entire training in Prague. Another advantage is that you will learn not to be afraid to communicate in controlled airspace. Letňany airport has higher fees than airports further away from Prague, but still not that high to travel far to a cheaper airport.

The aircraft will always be ready in time for your flight

Our handling team will always prepare your aircraft completely for the flight. They will refuel, clean and inspect it so you can focus on the important pre-flight tasks and your training lesson without delay.

Great prices for modern aircraft rental

Compare the age and equipment of the aircraft offered by other flight schools with our price. Old aircraft are simply not worth operating.

Great flight school service

The training will take place in the pleasant environment of our flight school. We have modern briefing rooms and audiovisual classrooms. Refreshments and beverages of your choice will be provided throughout the day. We fly 7 days a week until sunset. And we will take care of you all the time.

You will fly with experienced and friendly instructors.

The instructors you will be flying with in training are professional pilots with many years of experience. You may suspect that not every great pilot is also a good instructor. That's why it's even more important that our instructors are especially friendly, easy-going and very patient people with whom you will really enjoy the training.

Teaching is from the beginning focused on flying in Europe

If you plan to fly the aircraft in Europe after training, find out more about what to expect. If you are interested, we will plan several trips across Europe as a part of your training. By the way, we are specialists in trainings of flights abroad :-)

Training lasts 8 - 10 months

Training can be mastered in even a shorter time. It's up to you how much time you schedule for your flying.

Smooth rental of modern aircraft

After completing the training you can easily rent our planes for your private and business trips

It is not a problem to rent for the whole day or for more days with hangaring outside Letňany. We are one of the few schools where it is not a problem to rent a UL plane for longer trips. Our students rent planes after training for their trips around the Czech Republic or for private or business trips all across the Europe.

Book a demo flight

Try your first lesson with us and then decide

Come and experience what it is like to fly a plane and how the training is running. We will answer your questions about the aircraft and training and fly the aircraft for 30 minutes. You will see if piloting an aircraft meets your expectations and if flying is really right for you.

Details of PPL(A) pilot training

We provide the private pilot training on the most modern aircraft, which have a comfortable cockpit and advanced avionics. We offer the possibility to focus on foreign flights so that you can gain this experience during your training. If you are interested, we will plan several trips across Europe as a part of your training.

What are the training requirements?

To obtain  PPL(A), the applicant must be at least 17 years old. There is no legislative age limit for starting PPL training, and there is no upper age limit either.

There are therefore no requirements for starting private pilot training.

Gradually during the course of the training it is then necessary to obtain:

  1. Class 2 medical examination
  2. Radiotelephonist licence
  3. Pass the Pilot Theory Course
  4. Pilot insurance for the 1st solo flight with a deductible of 8 333 € and operator’s accident cover (recommended)
  5. In case of flights abroad ICAO exam

Training includes 45 hours of flying

Pilot training includes 45 hours of flight time. This amount may vary from applicant to applicant. The training is completed by a theoretical and practical test.

PPL(A) theoretical pilot course

During the training you will complete a theoretical pilot course

In this basic pilot course we will explain the basic aviation theory. You can start the practical training on the aircraft immediately and take this course during the practical training, which in many cases is recommended because you already have an idea of what the individual lectures are about.

 

New PPL(A) test questions at the CAA

At the end of the training you will take a theoretical exam in the following subjects:

  1. Air law and ATC procedures
  2. Human Performance
  3. Meteorology
  4. Communications 
  5. Principles of flight
  6. Operational Procedures
  7. Flight performance and planning
  8. General knowledge of the aircraft
  9. Navigation

You can access the questions as part of our theory course or you can order them separately.

Age limit 16 - 120 years

The students can do the first solo flight at the age of 16. To obtain PPL(A), the applicant must be at least 17 years of age. There is no legislative age limit for starting PPL training, and there is no upper limit either. The only condition is a medical examination by an Aeromedical Examiner.   

The medical examination is not demanding

Before your first solo flight, you must have a medical examination by an Aeromedical Examiner. There is no need to worry about the check-up, most people have no problems with it. 

How long is the pilot licence valid?

The validity of the licence is renewed every 2 years

In order to renew your licence, you must have flown at least 12 hours in the 12 months prior to the expiry date:

  1. At least 1 flight hour with an instructor.
  2. A minimum of 6 hours as PIC.
  3. A minimum of 12 take-offs and landings.

Or, if you do not meet these requirements, you must complete a flight with a flight examiner 3 months prior to expiration.

Why take the training with us?

Because we love what we do :-)

  1. You will fly only the most modern aircraft of today.
  2. During the training you will gain experience with flying in controlled airspace around Prague.
  3. We can focus the training from the beginning on experience with flights across Europe.
  4. You will fly with experienced and very friendly instructors.
  5. Training near the metro station Prague Letňany.
  6. Individual and friendly attitude to each client and many other benefits you will appreciate.
