| When you
learn to fly airplanes and get a
private pilot licenses, your lifestyle
can change drastically. It is the goal of
FliteQuest Aviation to
save the student pilot money on their
flying lessons while offering quality flight
training. This same philosophy also applies
to the private pilot ground schools. |
| There are several great training
aircraft to use to learn to fly. Here at
FliteQuest we use Cessna 150s. |
| When one compares the cost of learning
to fly to other activities, you will find
that flying your own airplane is a good
deal. |
| Your time will seemingly expand. A
week-end trip now becomes more than just a
long drive. When you know how to fly, you
can go further, and getting to your
destination is half the fun. By-the-way,
when you use your plane the trip will also
be much safer than a car. |
|
Learning to fly is much easier that most
people think. You are required to have a
minimum of forty hours of flight time. This
is made up of dual and solo flights. You
must pass two test, a written and flight
check. There is a simple physical exam to go
through and the doctor issues your student
pilot license at the end of your physical.
You can solo an aircraft at sixteen years
old and get a private pilot certificate at
seventeen. |
| Most student pilots will get their
private pilot license in about three to
four months. To do this one should fly at
least twice a week. One will cut the cost of
getting a pilot certificate if you fly at
least twice a week. Here at FliteQuest a
flight lesson will run about six to eight
tenths of an hour. Everybody is required to
have forty hours. The important thing is how
you use that forty hours. |
| FliteQuest Aviation has been located on
the Nampa airport for the last fifteen
years. |
