Private Pilot License

With your PPL, you can enjoy the freedom of flying an airplane wherever you want, even with your friends and family onboard.

Objective

The goal of the PPL program is to equip you with the skills to operate an aircraft safely under both normal and emergency conditions.

This license:
- Allows you to fly to any civil airport;
- Allows you to carrying friends & family;
- Does not allow commercial flying.

If your aim is to fly to other places within the region then your PPL is all you need.

Want to go further? The PPL can also be your step toward a Commercial Pilot License (CPL), which allows you to work for an airline.
