THE BASICS: |
|
|
|
Pilot training consists of both ground and flight
courses which cover flight rules and regulations, flight planning, navigation, radio
procedures and weather. In order to receive your certificate, you must pass the Federal
Aviation Administration written exam (rules and regulations), a medical exam, and then the
flying exam. As a pilot, you choose the level of involvement you want. The more you take
on, the more stringent the FAA requirements. From a recreational pilot certificate to an
air transport pilot certificate. |

COSTS: |

|
|
Costs to obtain a pilot's license vary, depending
on the area of the country you fly in and the amount of time you can devote. A
recreational pilot certificate can be as low as $2500 with an average of 35 hours of
flight time. A private pilot certificate will take a little more time and money - $6500 to
$8500. |
