Intensive Schedule

Unlike standard training programs, which might spread lessons over several months, accelerated programs pack training into a few weeks. This requires a significant commitment from the student, as they’ll be flying and studying nearly every day.

One-on-One Instruction

These programs often feature personalized instruction, where students work closely with an instructor. This one-on-one setting can lead to more efficient learning and quicker progression as the instruction is tailored to the student’s pace and needs.

Ground Instuction

Alongside the practical flying experience, students will receive intensive ground instruction. This includes learning about aviation theory, navigation, weather, aircraft operation, and FAA regulations.

FAA Requirements

Commitment

Because of the program’s intensity, students need to be prepared for a demanding schedule. This often means dedicating several weeks to nothing but flight training, which can be challenging but is ultimately rewarding for those who are committed.

If you’re considering this type of program, it’s crucial to ensure you’re ready for the commitment and intensity of the training. Also, research different flight schools to find one that offers a reputable accelerated program that fits your goals and learning style.
