Participant1. I have a valid passport that will expire in 2 months’ time but I will get it extended for another year considering that I am still studying in China. Can I still apply with it? I’m in my final year of university. I will graduate and return to my country in January of 2022 and also get a new passport when I go back.
2. How many planes does Epic have operational for flight training?
3. How are the conditions and safety of the planes?
4. How many flight instructors does Epic have on average in a year?
5. How many students per flight instructor?
6. How many days in a week do international students get to fly?
7. Can international students become CFI’s for epic to build their hours once they have completed their training there?
8. What are the other costs students need to take into account besides the training costs? eg, accommodation etc.
