About Our Private Pilot Certificate Course
The Private Pilot Certification Course is generally the student’s first introduction to modern aviation. To be able to get your Private Pilots license in Utah, you must be 17 years of age, be able to pass a FAA medical exam, pass a written, oral, and practical test with an examiner.
Applicant will receive on average 50 hours of flight training. The flight time consists of 40 hours dual and 10 hours solo. During this training students will learn pre-flight inspection, aircraft ground handling, emergency procedures, take-off, landing, radio procedures, cross country navigation, instrument, and other related exercises.
Nightline Air flight instructors are properly trained and certified to provide safety, learning, and enjoyment for the flight training journey. Instructors are committed to each pilot our school enrolls which provides a culture that is unmatched anywhere else. Our team is able to personalize the training material and format to each individual as learning and teaching styles vary. With our in-house maintenance and quick turnaround times, our aircraft provides an exceptional training platform for each course. Our ground and flight training syllabus allows our clients to receive instruction efficiently that allow pilots to build aeronautical knowledge and skill.
Ground School
As a Part 61 Flight Training School, we are authorized to administer a variety of methods to administer ground school. Unlike a Part 141 Program with mandatory in-person training, Nightline Air offers a complete comprehensive online ground school course that can be completed away from the Training Center. This course reviews the required knowledge areas the FAA has set in their Airman Certification Standards (ACS) to pass both the Written Exam and Practical Test with the FAA. These subject include aerodynamics, aircraft systems, weather, navigation, regulations, flight planning, and more. Our flight instructors are properly trained to administer one-on-one ground instruction to students that need in-person training. This variety of training is not only cost-effective, but allows both the structure and flexibility that Part 61 provides.
Flight Training
Flight Training is able to commence before, during, or after a student completes ground school whether done online, in-person, or a mix of both. Our flight training program is designed to support the success of the student in aircraft knowledge and mastery as required by the FAA Airman Certificate Standards (ACS). We recommend pilots to fly at minimum, 2-3 flights per week to keep student’s on track to complete the program most efficiently.
