COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

You'll need to hold both a Private Pilot Certificate and an Instrument Rating. These provide the foundation for the advanced maneuvers and precision flying required at the commercial level.
The FAA requires 250 hours total flight time and 100 hours as pilot in command. If you're still building hours, we can help you plan time-building flights efficiently.
You'll need at least a 2nd class medical certificate for commercial privileges. This is a higher standard than private pilot, as you'll be flying for compensation.
Our accelerated program can be completed in 4-6 weeks for pilots who meet the experience requirements and can train full-time. Part-time training takes longer but fits more schedules.
