Frequently Asked Questions
Can anyone learn to fly?
Many people from all types of backgrounds and ages have successfully learnt to fly. To gain a Private Pilot’s Licence (PPL), it helps if you have a basic understanding of maths and physics, as well as read, write and speak English to a good level.
How long will it take?
The minimum requirement set out by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is 40 hours of which 10 hours solo. Factors which may affect this total include how frequently you fly, weather, time of year etc.
How can I tell if I am suitable for training?
You can take lessons from the age of fourteen and fly solo at sixteen. Your PPL can be issued at the age of seventeen.
There is no upper age limit as long as you meet Class 2 medical criteria set out by the CAA which are not excessively stringent. Glasses can be worn and do not prevent a prospective pilot from flying. Medicals can be booked with our AME based at the airfield. Please find contact details below.
What are the privileges of the Private Pilot’s Licence?
You may carry family and friends on flights across the UK and beyond.
As you gain experience, you may wish to add further ratings to your licence, for example a Night Rating will allow you to fly at night. A Multi-Engine rating will allow you to fly the bigger and faster multi-engine aircraft. A Restricted Instrument Rating (IRR) will allow you to fly in cloud and make instrument approaches into larger suitably equipped airports while a full Instrument Rating allows you into airspace normally reserved for commercial air traffic.
Do you need special clothing?
Will I need special equipment? Chart, books etc?
Will I have to take exams?
