The Commercial Pilot license is the first step to becoming a professional pilot. Whether you have aspirations of becoming a flight instructor, a crop duster, or of flying airliners it all begins here. Achieving the Commercial Pilot license will perfect your skills in all areas of flight planning and execution. Not surprisingly, some choose to obtain the Commercial License simply to become better, safer, and more well-rounded pilots.

     Training will consist of both classroom sessions on the ground as well as sessions in the aircraft. Flights will consist of both instructional flights and solo flights. Upon completion of the training you will take a license exam.


The flight training will be conducted in our Piper Arrow III.
