Choosing the Right Flight School
Part of getting started is choosing the right program for you. We know you have a lot of options between a four-year traditional school and multiple flight schools around the country. Sierra Charlie Aviation offers a 12 to 14 month program to get you ready for takeoff. Here are some things to look for when choosing the right school:
- The type of aircraft used for training
- Customization of program
- Pass rates of existing/past students
- Who are the instructors
