Greetings,
My name is Juan Chang-king and I come from Seychelles.
It’s a dream of mine to become a pilot and I’m looking for a flight school that I can make that dream a reality. I have a couple of questions.
1. How much will it cost to get ATPL license, multi-engine rating, instrument rating and night rating?
2. What’s the requirements to be able to join the school?
3. How many planes does the school have that students can conduct their training in?
4. Does the school provide accommodation for students?
5. What’s the pass rate at the school?
6. And when does training start throughout the year?
7. What top airlines recognize the flight school?Thank you
Juan Chang-king
Hi Juancking!
That’s amazing to hear. Pursuing your dream of becoming a pilot is an exciting journey, and choosing the right flight school is a crucial step. Let me answer your following inquiries.
1. We’re sorry, but we do not offer an ATP program for international students. Due to visa restrictions, international students are not permitted to work as flight instructors in the U.S., which makes it challenging to accumulate the required 1,500 flight hours. Also, night ratings is included in PPL course. If you are starting from zero, here is the pilot training we offer to international students: Our Airline Pilot Program for international students takes you through all the training necessary to become a professional pilot under FAA standards. For international students, tuition is $69,917.00, and it takes approximately 7 months to complete the training. https://epicflightacademy.com/international-pilot-pathway/
Consisting of 3 months Private Pilot Course, 2 months of Instrument rating, and 2 months of Commercial Single-Engine & 3 weeks of Commercial Multi-Engine add-on pilot course.
