Executive Flight Institute offers personalized instruction for students seeking their Private, Instrument and Commercial pilot ratings.  Training is done in a friendly, comfortable atmosphere, with professional and certified flight  instructors.  We also offer an interactive online curriculum – an industry exclusive!

We tailor your flight training to fit YOUR schedule.  An ideal schedule would have you taking at least one to two lessons per week, with completion in about 6 months. As with any learning process, the more often you  train the less you have to re-learn as you go along. However, if once a week or twice a month is all you can manage, you will succeed in becoming a pilot as well. EFI’s experienced instructors are dedicated to making sure you do!

We have flight training financing available through Pilot Finance. They offer flexible payment plans and affordable rates. Click on the link above, or contact our office for more information!

 Are you ready to fly?

Your training will consist of two parts – flight training and ground school.

During your ground school, you’ll learn bits of the ”book knowledge” you’ll need to be a proficient pilot. You have several options for ground training, but the goal is to successfully complete your aviation written test.

Flight training takes place in the airplane. You’ll learn the skills and gain experience to safely operate an airplane on your own – and pass your check ride.

Flight instruction may begin at any age, but before you begin flight training the prospective student should consider the basic requirements:

• You must be a citizen of the United States
• You must be at least 16 years of age to solo
• You must be 17 years of age to receive a Private Pilot Certificate
• You must be able to obtain at least a 3^rd Class Medical Certificate PRIOR to your first solo
• You must be able to read, speak and understand the English language
• Meet the FAA minimum flight time requirements
• Pass the FAA written exam
• Pass the FAA practical test

Please Note: A Medical Certificate is not required before you begin ground school or during the earliest part of flight training.  However, we do recommend that you obtain your Medical Examination/Certificate once you’ve taken your first several lessons. We have a list of local aviation medical examiners available in the office.

Foreign Student Pilots

Non-U.S. Citizens must begin a TSA authorization process that includes: 

• Notifying the flight school of their intent to take Flight Training
• Request Authorization through TSA’s “Alien Flight Student Program”
  • The TSA’s authorization process has several steps that include, but not limited to;  presenting documentation, finger printing and being photographed.  Also there is a processing fee associated with this program.  For more information please go to the Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association or the TSA web site regarding the Alien Flight Student Program.
