14-Day Private Pilot Training Course

Tony, Thanks for facilitating accelerated training timelines. I don’t think I would have been able to achieve my goal of getting a PPL without a shortened time frame. I would say that if you’re considering doing an accelerated PPL course with AFIT, do it! It can be done. It is a lot of work, but if you do take your written exam seriously, do your homework, and study hard it is definitely achievable. After going through it myself, I feel that in a lot of ways being able to review and then immediately practice the next day was a better training setup.

Andrew was a fantastic instructor. I think he was born to teach. He was very patient, safety conscious, generous with praise when needed, and appropriately corrective when things were not safe. He was very genuine, and would tell me where I was doing well and where I was deficient. That’s how it needs to be with flight school! Despite the two week timeline (and my doubts pre-checkride), after passing I realized that I was very proficient (for a freshly minted pilot) in both the air and on the ground. I would highly recommend Andrew as an instructor for anyone considering following in my footsteps.
