14-Day Private Pilot Training Course

I would like to thank Tony, Ciprian, and Alex for their efforts during my 14-day Private Pilot training!

I had limited time and live in an area where it is difficult to complete the FAA requirements for a private pilot certificate. I travelled to Van Nuys to complete the 14-day training with AFIT.

Tony was very helpful and communicative throughout the process. He accommodated me with program dates and helped me find a testing center and aeromedical examiner.

The training was intense and the time flew by, but being able to fly 14-days in a row with the same aircraft and instructor helped me improve my flying skills every day. Ciprian was a great instructor. He understood the needs of the student and developed safe and logical plan to maximize our training effectiveness, focus on areas that needed improvement and complete the Part 61 requirements.

Van Nuys is a great location. Alex manages the planes at Van Nuys and was very accommodating! He was present and answered any questions we had regarding the airplane.

Van Nuys was a great location to be based out of. The weather conditions were great and the airport allowed for us to depart without significant delays on the ground. It also was surrounded by ample training areas and airports.

Thanks AFIT
