Affordable, Fast, Effective:

Flight training in new Cessna airplanes!For about half the cost of a used car you can learn to fly and become a certificated Private Pilot and enjoy a lifetime of memorable flying experiences. Accelerated Flight Training using SunState's unique Integrated Flight Training Programs are truly the most cost and time efficient way to learn to fly due to the fact that with accelerated private pilot training your learning curve is maximized and you are totally immersed into the subject matter for the duration of your private pilot flight training course, away from the normal distractions of work, business and life in general. Spend 3 weeks in Florida learning to fly and then spend the rest of your life with a private pilot certificate and a skill that less than 2 percent of the population now enjoys.

The tables below gives you an itemized estimation of ALL of the costs involved with this private pilot training course, and is based on the average flight training time to completion. Keep in mind that this is an estimate, not a "one size fits all" package deal. Your actual costs will vary, simply because everyone is different and possesses different learning styles and past experiences (such as in the case of finish-up students). By using the Cessna Computer Based Instruction system, your total time to learn to fly and completion of the Private Pilot training course will be significantly less than the industry average though. This is accomplished by using the most advanced interactive instructional techniques which involves more of the senses into the learning process, thus maximizing the retention of information.

  • No specified minimum age to begin dual flight training. Must be 16 years of age to solo, 17 years of age to take the Practical Exam for the license.
