Part Time Pilot helps future private pilot license holders save time & money with the best & most affordable Private Pilot Online Ground School and Checkride Prep Online Flight Training
Students save on average $2000 to $4000 by simply understanding their options for a Private Pilot's License before they begin flight training.
What is that students don't know that is costing them so much money?
First: The differences between Part 61 and Part 141 (watch this video here)
The major difference is that a Part 141 school has MORE CONTROL over your training. They require you to perform their ground school, 1 on 1 ground training & reviews with your instructor and additional requirements that make meeting milestones such as soloing and cross-country flights difficult if not impossible.
Second:
The reason is the same reason Part Time Pilot was created. Watch the video below to hear how Part Time Pilot was started and how our mission sets us apart:
If we answered that we would be biased. So instead we did the research and compiled it all to let you decide which route to a private pilot's license is best for you
The most important trait of an online flight school is that it helps you achieve your private pilot's license. In order to achieve a private pilot license a student pilot must meet 4 objectives:
A good online ground school should help you accomplish all of these objectives. A good online ground school should teach you all the knowledge required for a private pilot license, provide you an endorsement for the FAA Written exam, provide you with adequate FAA test prep so that you pass the FAA Written exam, provide you with knowledge that will help you physically flying the aircraft with more competency and safety, and prepare you to pass the private pilot's license FAA checkride.
