30 Day Private
It is not only possible to get your private certificate within 45 days, it is the best way to do it, saving both time and money over traditional methods. For those who need to see results in the shortest time, the 30 day program is the one for you.
The average to achieve a private pilot certificate is 70 hours. However, it is common for those who are able to fly 3 days per week to do it in as little as40-50 hours, saving thousands of dollars in instructor and airplane expense.
The cost for the 30 Day Private is $3,500 plus airplane costs.
Read below a recent testimonial from a student who earned his private in 35 days.
I wanted to get my private pilot certificate and I wanted it fast. I had just over 35 days because I was going to be graduating from Wharton and wanted to get my flight license at the same time. I needed someone to work with me at my schedule and also be flexible, yet focused. I was lucky to find Dave who is an experienced, patient and focused flight instructor. I thoroughly enjoyed Dave's style of teaching because he did not overload me with information, but structured the course to ensure that there was ample learning every time we met. Furthermore, he was professional at all times and was on time for every lesson we had scheduled. I had a lot of obscure questions for him and he always answered them and in case he wasn't sure he made it a point to look it up and get back to me the very next day either by email or in person.
His teaching style is very professional and coming from a professional background, I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was a joy to learn from someone who was willing to teach. Dave's goals in aviation are not to rack up more hours and it shows - he is an excellent teacher and a wonderful person to know. While it was challenging to fly almost everyday especially when the weather wasn't being too co-operative, Dave worked extremely hard to make sure all lessons were covered and had to restructure the course almost every day to ensure the deadline was met. Without his support and dedication, I wouldn't be a pilot today.
If you value your time, money and are keen on learning - you should talk to Dave. But be prepared to work hard because he does, at all times.
