What’s life really like as a pilot? The things you’ve always wanted to know about the job!.
It’s fair to say, being a pilot is up there with the most exciting jobs that exist! It is also up there as one of the most demanding and responsible jobs that exist too.
It’s easy to mythologise pilots; the job seems so glamorous. So unlike anything else. The uniform, the travel, the (dare we say it) power, the years of training, the feeling of having hundreds of lives depending on you to get them safely from A to B.
If you’ve always wanted to know what the reality of being a pilot is like – the hidden hardships, the benefits, the things the average passenger won’t see – we’ve gone above and beyond, and done just that. Our 5 day pilot course will cover everything you could possibly need to know, and also provides an opportunity to actually go flying at the end of it!
The course is both theoretical and very hands-on. You will gain insight into subjects such as Meteorology, Navigation and Principles of Flight. You’ll work with maps and other types Pilot equipment. You’ll quickly realise why good communication skills, maths and science, are of paramount importance when becoming a pilot.
Our 5 day pilot course is delivered by actual Commercial Pilots who have many years and thousands of flying hours of experience. They are also qualified flying instructors and examiners, appointed by the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority!
