   If you've been dreaming of becoming a pilot, but thought it was too expensive or too difficult – we have news for you! You can become a certificated Sport Pilot in 14 days and about ½ the cost of traditional training programs. And you can command a comfortable, modern, sporty, factory-new, two-seat airplane, and cruise across the country at 125 MPH.

   With our safe, fun and easy learning environment, you can begin an aviation career as a Sport Pilot and advance into complex and multi engine aircraft, or just enjoy flying with friends and family as a Sport Pilot. There are no restrictions on how far you can fly as a FAA certificated Sport Pilot at Aero-Tech. 

   After graduation, you'll have a skill to last a lifetime and the freedom to go places that most people only 603ev updream about.  Go to the beach or go to grandmas. Expand your weekend playground!

   Looking for ways to help pay for your flying? Become a Sport Pilot Instructor without having an instrument rating or a commercial pilot certificate. If you are a certificated Sport Pilot or a Private Pilot with a gift for teaching and a passion for flying, Aero-Tech can make you a Sport Pilot Instructor.

   Or maybe, you're a certificated pilot looking to rent an economical, factory-new, 2-seater. We have a checkout course that will have you airborne quickly.

Course Outline- The Making of a Sport Pilot

2 weeks can learn you a skill that will change your life.  If you really love it, you can use your Aero-Tech Sport Pilot training and hours as prerequisite towards additional FAA certificates and ratings to enhance your skills in the future. No restrictions.

Your training is organized and efficient in a Part 141, FAA Approved Course – the only FAA Approved Course for Sport Pilot training that we know of! Minimum training requirements to be eligible for certification is 20 hours. But we don't like to rush things. We give you a flight budget of 25 hours so you can relax and enjoy the training. We want you to learn thoroughly to be a proficient and safe pilot. But you only pay for what you actually use.

First Day:  A little paperwork and then the adventure begins. Your training experience starts with a fun and lively pre-flight briefing before being introduced to your training aircraft.  Most customers will fly two flights each day, but if you really love it, we may do more. Between flights you'll begin studying the Pilots Operating Handbook and materials to help you breeze through the FAA Knowledge exam. You'll return to the motel with homework – but it won't really seem like work.

Block I   Work with your instructor team to learn basic skills in realistic, scenario-based, lesson plans. You'll also get comfortable talking to Air Traffic Control while flying in a variety of airspace and airports.

Block II   You're already beginning to feel like a pilot. You talk-the-talk around the lobby. You apply the concepts of GPS, regulations and weather in the cockpit. Earn a Class C and Class D endorsement and over 97 KIAS endorsement. You'll be flying solo soon!603EV NOSE

Block III  It's time to see the real utility of the airplane, navigating to beautiful airports around the Blue Grass state. You'll also complete the FAA Knowledge Exam in our convenient, in-house FAA Knowledge Testing facility.

Graduation   If you've worked hard and completed all the tasks your instructor team assigned, then you'll be walking, talking and feeling like a pilot by now. A little more paperwork and you'll meet the FAA pilot examiner.  Our in-house FAA Sport Pilot Examiner is thorough but gentle – just the way you'd want it. 

 

 

Out of Town Guests
We have a nearby motel that we normally work with, offering $48 per night. They provide courtesy transportation to and from the airport each day and free, high speed Internet access.
