Flight Training
General Flying Progress Test
(GFPT)
We here at The Aeroplane Company in
Perth do not wish to create an illusion that flying training will be simple.
Learning to fly requires patience, study and periods of intense
application. However the rewards are great,
providing you with a sense
of achievement borne of dedication and self discipline and a Private Pilot's
Licence
that will open up a welcome new world of exciting experiences.
It may even lead to a new and challenging career
as a commercial
pilot.
But don't let the thought of hard work deter you. Our hand picked
staff of dedicated flight instructors will make
this journey of
discovery as easy as possible with thorough pre-flight and post-flight briefings
and clear flight
instruction.
Flying training courses can be
designed to suit your requirements of work and family life to ensure smooth and
successful training. Courses can be conducted on both a full-time or
part-time basis.
Below are the different stages of training .
The GFPT is the first stage of
training toward the Private Pilot Licence. During this stage of training you
will
learn the basic theory of flight, and complete the initial flight
sequences. Upon completion of the GFPT you will
be able to take friends
and family flying within the training area.
Private Pilot Licence (PPL)
This is the second and final step in
becoming a recreational pilot and naturally follows on from the GFPT.
The
PPL navigation training course is designed to teach how to accurately navigate
around the country side
using recognised navigation
techniques.
On completion of the training you will be the holder of an
Australian Private Pilot's Licence witch allows you to
fly anywhere
within Australia or in many other countries in Australian registered aircraft.
At this stage it is also
possible to continue on and complete a series
of licenced endorsements and ratings to vary the type of aircraft
that
you can fly and also engage in aerobatics, formation and night flying.
Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL)
The final step in starting your
aviation career. This licence will open a whole new world of flying
opportunities
as a professional aviator.
You will be taught not
only advanced techniques but also the considerations, parameters and
requirements
placed on the professional Pilot. Here at The Aeroplane
Company we train our Commercial students to be
immediately
