Student Pilot Fundamentals
This course introduces student pilots to the fundamental concepts of flight. We seek to provide a framework that students can use in their training and beyond. Topics covered include aerodynamics, fundamental maneuvers, and the training process.
Private Pilot
This course prepares you for the FAA Private Pilot Airplane written test, and also includes lots of information to prepare you for the oral exam and beyond. First and foremost, this course should help you graduate with a conceptual framework to use in your own flying journey—whether it's a career flying jets or a rewarding hobby!
Instrument
Prepares students to take the Instrument-Airplane written exam and provides them with the knowledge to earn their instrument rating.
Multi-Engine Course
Approach multi-engine flying like a professional! The multi-engine course is designed specifically for career-bound pilots who are quickly going to advance from a Piper Seminole or Cessna 310 to something 10x heavier and twice as complicated. We emphasize simplicity, developing mental models, and—like our other courses—aerodynamic understanding.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is ground school?
When new pilots learn to fly, they must study academic concepts and fly with an instructor. Ground school teaches the academic content to prepare pilots for several exams at the end of training.
When should I start ground school?
It’s up to you. Some folks prefer to finish ground school before they fly. Others prefer to study concurrent with their flying. It’s a personal preference and depends on your learning style.
How do I start flying?
Reach out to your local flight schools and take an introductory flight! If you have any questions about how to do that, reach out!
How long does the Private program take?
There are 102 lessons in the Private Pilot course. Some are relatively quick, and others require quite a bit of study. In total, we tell students to plan on 80 hours of preparation, but unless you are super-human we recommend spacing this out over at least a month.
What will I do in the Private program?
Our courses consist of simple blackboard lecture videos, lesson notes, practice exercises, review questions, and a resources library with study guides. We recommend starting with the lecture videos and lesson notes, studying your flashcards, and lastly doing the practice exercises.
What topics will I learn in the Private Pilot course?
Many including aviation regulations, aerodynamics, airplane systems, airspace, navigation, flight planning & more!
Is there a trial version?
No. But we do offer a 14-day money-back guarantee!
Do you offer bulk rates for instructors and flight schools?
Yes, only on a case-by-case basis. Reach out if you are interested!
Is my device compatible with Flight Apprentice ground schools?
Our program is compatible with all modern web-browsers including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge and Internet Explorer. It is also fully mobile-compatible, so you can take it on the go! And if you have iOS we have an app on the App Store.
How does this course differ from other courses?
We use a very simple lecture style designed to build concepts from the ground up. We find that this process helps students grasp ideas more fully, which enhances their skill at applying concepts in the real-world. Although we prepare students for the written and oral exams, we are focused primarily on building well-rounded, confident, competent aviators.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Absolutely. You can cancel your subscription anytime from your account page.
Is my personal information safe?
Yes. We collect as little personal information as possible, and maintain high website security standards. Additionally, payment information is not stored on our website.
Do you offer a veteran’s discount?
Yes, we offer a 10% veteran’s discount on all our subscriptions and courses. Please email support@flightapprentice.com with a photo of your military ID to receive the discount.
How long does it take to complete the ground school program?
Total time varies by program and by student. Generally, we encourage students to plan for 80 hours of preparation each for the Private and Instrument courses, and 40 hours for Commercial.
