This license allows you to fly small aircraft! Take your family and friends flying!
• Instrument Rating Lessons
  Adding an instrument rating to your private pilot license is crucial for flying with reduced visibility (in clouds or heavy fog) while adhering to strict instrument fight rules (IFR). This rating increases your versatility and safety as a pilot. Increase your piloting skill with a necessary and essential rating.
• Commercial Pilot Lessons
  A commercial pilot license (CPL) allows you to be compensated for flying. It requires at least 250 total flight hours, including time spent flying at night, cross-country, and solo. Jobs available for low time commercial pilots include: Pipeline Patrol, Traffic Watch, Aerial Survey, and Aircraft Ferrying.
• Certified Flight Instructor Course
  Adding a Certified Flight Instructor Rating to your Commercial Pilot License is crucial for building a wealth of knowledge, while improving your Crew Resource Management skills on the flight deck. Teaching other aspiring pilots how to fly is one of the most rewarding experiences.
• Multi-Engine Flying Lessons
  Adding a Multi-Engine Rating to your Commercial Pilot License is crucial for flying for corporate aviation or the airlines. At this point you will be a master of your aircraft being able to control larger airplanes with multiple engines. This rating increases your versatility and safety as a pilot.
