Flight Department Information Manual

although solo flights require pilots to be at least 16 years of age, and the earliest a Sport or Private Pilot certificate can be earned is at 17 years old. The training process for each pilot certificate or rating in most cases requires passing a knowledge (written) exam as well as a practical test consisting of an oral exam and flight test administered by an FAA Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE). Instructors work one-on-one with students, so we understand how important the right fit and a good relationship can be in any student’s success. We encourage you to meet our team of professional flight instructors and talk with our Chief Pilot to find the right person to train you. We understand how important it is to have realistic cost estimates to make fully informed decisions about flight training. On the following pages we provide basic information and the estimated costs for our Sport, Private, Instrument, Commercial Pilot, and Flight Instructor courses. The FAA Minimum costs are based on FAA specified minimums for flight and ground instruction, and solo requirements. In addition, we provide estimates that include other expected costs like medical exams, testing fees, and training supplies. Many flight schools do not include these types of costs in their training quotes, so be sure to ask when making comparisons. Please note that these estimates are based upon our current pricing, which can change with or without notice, and are intended to be used to estimate the cost of flight training. They are not a binding quote. We include the cost for a basic headset in our Sport and Private Pilot cost estimates. While this is not a required purchase, we strongly encourage students to purchase a good aviation headset. We have David Clark headsets available to rent for $8 per lesson. As a David Clark dealer, we can order any headset they offer and apply $25 of your headset rental fees paid toward the cost of any headset purchased through us. Sarasota Avionics, located next door to the main terminal at Peter O. Knight, offers Bose and Lightspeed Aviation headsets for sale, too. In addition to showing the estimated costs based on the FAA minimums, we included estimates based on what we see our “typical” students doing. Your costs will vary depending on the airplane you use, how often you fly, your aptitude for flying, and your diligence in preparing for your lessons with home study. Flight training is expensive, as much as we all wish otherwise. While we cannot accept VA or GI Bill benefits or guaranteed student loans for flight training we do work with many scholarship providers and organizations like PilotFinance.com. Aviation organizations such as AOPA, EAA, Women in Aviation, The 99s, and others offer scholarships; we encourage you to apply! For all our certificate courses using Cessna aircraft, we use Cessna’s Online Ground School. These courses were developed for Cessna Pilot Centers by King Schools, a leader in aviation training resources. The Online Ground School will cover everything you need to know for the FAA Knowledge Test. The Online Ground School also integrates with the flight training course syllabus and is designed to be completed concurrently. The online training coupled with additional ground and flight instruction provided by your CFI will teach you everything you need to know to be a safe pilot. For your ground school course to link to our flight school, you must purchase it here rather than on-line. To find out more about the curriculum and ground school go to www.CessnaFlightTraining.com. You can go to the below link to download our syllabus: http://cessnaflighttraining.kingschools.com/secure/CCF/library.aspx For Private Pilot training in Cirrus Aircraft, we use Cirrus’ Private Pilot course available for purchase directly from them at http://Learning.CirrusApproach.com (you will first need to create an account with them). We also require Cirrus students and renters to purchase the Flight Operations Manual published in the iBooks store for use in all Cirrus courses (Transition, Recurrent VFR or IFR, Commercial, etc.). A brief discussion of the requirements for each rating follows. Sport Pilot Sport Pilot Sport Pilot Sport Pilot The Sport Pilot certificate allows for daytime flying in good weather conditions. This certificate is a great option for someone who wants to fly for fun at relatively lower cost. Regulations limit Sport Pilots to flying smaller, low powered two-seat airplanes called Light Sport Aircraft (LSA). These airplanes are easy and fun to fly. The FAA does not require Sport Pilots to pass a physical examination by an FAA Aeromedical Examiner; they need only be healthy enough to possess a state-issued driver's license. The minimum age to solo for Sport Pilots is 16, and minimum age to earn the certificate is 17. Prior to solo flight, your instructor will help you apply for a Student Pilot certificate. The FAA requires only 25 hours of flight time logged to be eligible for the Practical Test, although we find a well-prepared student flying at least twice weekly typically completes the course with 30 to 35 hours logged. Atlas operates four LSAs: an Icon A5 amphibious LSA at our Peter O. Knight location, and three Cessna 162 Skycatchers at our Plant City base.

The Private Pilot course trains a pilot to control and maneuver an airplane during favorable weather conditions, operating under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). Areas of study include primary aerodynamics, aircraft systems and instruments, navigation, weather and regulations, aeronautical decision making, and risk management. Prior to solo flight, students must pass at least a third-class medical examination with an AME and obtain a Student Pilot certificate (your instructor will assist with this). The FAA requires at least 40 hours of flight time logged to be eligible for the Practical Test. We find well-prepared students flying at least twice weekly typically complete their training with between 50 and 60 hours of flight time. Peter O.

We strongly encourage every Private Pilot to earn this rating. Most graduates of this program say the gains in precision in their flying skills and added knowledge makes them a safer and more confident pilot. The training includes a deeper dive into aircraft systems, flight planning considerations that differ from operating in visual meteorological conditions, weather, working with air traffic control, instrument procedures for departure, enroute, arrival and approach into the terminal environment. The FAA requires a minimum of 40 hours of simulated or actual instrument flight time and 50 hours of cross-country time. We structure the training to include cross- country flights as necessary to ensure this requirement is met. In certain circumstances, we can offer this course on an accelerated basis with some advance planning. Peter O.

Your instructor can structure your lessons to include cross country flights while building your instrument skills. Commericial Pilot Commericial Pilot Commericial Pilot Commericial Pilot This rating is for those who want to be paid to fly or who simply want to continue learning and master new flight maneuvers. These challenging maneuvers include 50-degree banked turns, steep spirals, lazy eights, eights on pylons, and chandelles. Areas of study include more aerodynamics, and regulations. The minimum requirements for the practical test include having 250 hours of flight time logged. Cost estimates on the following page do not include estimates for building flight experience outside of the ratings earned prior to the Commercial certificate. For example, pilots who earned their Private certificate and Instrument rating in the amount of time a typical student takes (approximately 50 to 55 hours for each) would still need around 150 hours of additional flight time logged (some of which will come from the Commercial training) prior to taking their practical test. The regulations also stipulate that some of the flight time come from flying either a complex or technologically advanced airplane (TAA). We have TAA trainers at both of our locations. Peter O.

Flight Instructor Flight Instructor Flight Instructor Flight Instructor---- Airplane Airplane Airplane Airplane Most pilots begin their training to fulfill a life-long dream to fly that becomes a life- long passion. Flight instructors make those dreams come true, making it one of the most rewarding careers in aviation. While many instruct to gain the necessary experience to move along an aviation career path flying bigger and faster airplanes, some consider it a calling. Training consists of mastering Private Pilot and Commercial Pilot maneuvers from the right seat while developing the ability to teach the maneuvers to new pilots. Candidates gain an instructional level of knowledge in every aspect of flight and complete the training ready to share their knowledge with the next generation of pilots. For this certificate, candidates must pass two knowledge (written) exams: Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI) and Flight Instructor- Airplane (FIA), create and teach lesson plans both in a classroom setting and in flight. While we cannot guarantee a position at Atlas Aviation to every graduate of our program, we nearly always hire our CFI candidates upon completion. Flight Instructor Flight Instructor Flight Instructor Flight Instructor---- Instrument Instrument Instrument Instrument We recommend every flight instructor get the CFII rating as quickly as possible after earning their initial Flight Instructor certificate. For those who plan to gain experience and move on to an airline or corporate flight department, the CFII enables logging cross country and night hours at a faster pace than those instructors who do not have the rating. CFIIs also gain tremendous amounts of experience operating “in the system” making them more confident and capable when moving up to the next rung in their career ladder. Whether moving on to airlines or not, being able work with students through each rating rather than hand them off to another CFI for the instrument rating is very satisfying. Peter O.
