4 Tips to Find the Best Flying School

Choosing among flight schools in Florida is the first step to realize your dream of becoming a pilot. But to ensure that you’ll soar high, you should only pick the best school.

Here, we listed some tips to help you choose flight schools in South Florida or flight schools in Broward County where you can enroll.

Enroll in the best course outline

Always check the course outline of the flight schools at FXE before enrolling. Make sure that it suits the education you want to get. A FAR Part 141-operating school has a meticulous course outline and intensive practice. Meanwhile, FAR Part 61 is more relaxed.

Choose which one suits you best. Both have varying costs and level of expertise.

Look for a competitive cost

The cost of studying in flight schools at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport isn’t cheap. Still, try to look for a school with the most competitive rates. Just take note that the cost doesn’t reflect the school’s quality of education.

It’s best that you prepare financially before enrolling in any school. Scholarships are also available to reduce the burden of paying fees.

Licensed and experienced instructors

All the instructors of your chosen flight school should be duly licensed, trained, and experienced. Each instructor should have specific flying hours in line with the aviation industry’s standards.

Aside from this, check how many licensed pilots are in the flight school. The more pilots there are the better for you. Although the course may cost more, it’s totally worth it.

Complete aviation aircraft  

When it comes to flying, it’s important that you have firsthand experience of operating an aircraft. With this, you should check how many aircraft the flying school owns or commissions for training. Poor availability of the aircraft means your education will take longer and it will cost more.
