Health Report:
Pilot candidates must obtain a health certificate from hospitals authorized by DGCA before starting their flight training. Since it is not possible for candidates who cannot obtain a health certificate to start their flight training, it is recommended that candidates obtain their health certificate before starting their theoretical training. However, not having the health certificate yet does not preclude registration or taking the theoretical training.
PPL Theoretical Training:
Theoretical knowledge trainings lasting 110 hours in total are conducted online (remote-interactive). Pilot candidate students are required to attend 100% of the courses. In addition, our NorthFLY flight academy adds additional lessons from time to time for the development of candidates in PPL Private Pilot License theoretical training.
Flight Training:
Flight Training lasts 45 hours in total and 46.5 hours including 1.5 hours of check flight by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). Training flights are conducted with single-engine Cessna 152 and 172 aircraft.
Location and Accommodation:
As NorthFLY Flight Academy, our PPL Private Pilot License trainings continue uninterruptedly throughout the year in our headquarters in Samsun, but trainings can also be opened in our other centers such as Istanbul-Tekirdağ. Our students are accommodated in our guesthouses, which are designed and furnished to serve as apart-hotels. The location of our guesthouses has been chosen in Samsun – Center to ensure that our students do not stay away from city life while studying. In addition, on the days of flight training activities, student shuttle services depart from our guesthouses to the airport.
Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) Attendance Status:
For candidates without any flight training experience, the PPL is the training that should be taken as the beginning of the Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) training. If you decide to choose piloting as a profession, you can continue with ATPL modular training after obtaining the PPL.
