Flight Training at AirQuest Aviation's Flight School
What will learning to fly an airplane be like?
It is not difficult, nor unsafe. In fact, it's often been said that it’s far more dangerous to drive to the airport! Aviation is safe because of the stringent training involved and the meticulous maintenance required by the FAA.
At AirQuest Aviation, our flight school instructors will continuously guide you into more advanced and stressful situations to make you a better pilot. At AirQuest Aviation, we pride ourselves on the quality of instruction given.
Training programs include:
Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, Multi-Engine Rating, Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor (CFI, CFII and MEI) and Airline Transport Pilot.
Cirrus Transition Training is also available at AirQuest Aviation.
The Training: What's Involved and What to Expect...
During your flight school training, you will be instructed in many different areas of aeronautical knowledge, including:
- Fundamentals of Flight
- Meteorology and Weather
- Aircraft Performance and Weights & Balance
- Navigation by Radio Aids and Charts
- Aeronautical Decision Making
To obtain your license, you must pass three exams. The first exam is a simple written test - the FAA has published questions and answers that you may review to prepare for the exam. If you have the time to commit to studying the information, you will be able to begin your training NOW!
The second and third exams are the Practical - the checkride with a Designated Examiner from the FAA who issues pilot licenses. First, you must pass an oral exam in which you answer questions on the above subjects. Next, you and the examiner will go up in the airplane so that you may demonstrate the maneuvers that you have learned during your training. If you perform satisfactorily on both of these exams, the examiner prints your shiny, new certificate right then!
AirQuest Aviation is a LaserGrade Sponsored Testing Center.
