FAQs

Does Flight Apprentice have a brick-and-mortar flight school?

What devices/software is the ground school compatible with?

The Flight Apprentice website is entirely browser-based and works with any modern web browser including Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari and Firefox.

What makes the Flight Apprentice ground school better?

We develop our course information to help students prioritize the most critical information. Students in many ground school programs suffer from information overload: we know that some information is most important to future aviators, especially decision making, aerodynamics and aircraft control, and risk management. We integrate these topics throughout our course, and emphasize these critical areas to ensure that pilots build a solid foundation early in their piloting career. We help students ingrain this critical information through brief video lectures, scenario discussions and handouts.

How much time is required to complete the ground school?

This is mostly dependent upon individual student work ethic, but plan for around 80 hours of work.

Can Flight Apprentice endorse me for my written exam?

Yes! After successfully completing the Private Pilot Ground School, you will receive a graduation certificate which also serves as a written test endorsement.

Can I cancel or refund my subscription?

Absolutely! We will refund your subscription no questions asked up to two weeks after purchase. You can always cancel your subscription before the next charge date on your account page.

Is Flight Apprentice a secure website?

Yes. We use SSL and a secure payment system called Stripe to ensure that user data is always protected.

Does Flight Apprentice give away or sell my personal information?

Never.

What do you use my personal information for?

We work hard to collect only the information we need to create a good user experience.
