14-Day Instrument Training Course (Two Students Partner Training)

My twin sister and I recently completed the 14-day accelerated IFR training program at AFIT, and it was truly an outstanding experience. We were both initially a bit nervous about diving into such an intense course, there’s a lot of information to absorb in a short amount of time, but the program exceeded our expectations in every way.

Mr. Tony, the owner, was incredibly helpful and kind. He took care of all the logistics and helped us get everything set up, including securing their aircraft so that by the start date, we were completely ready to go. His support made the whole process smooth and stress-free.

Our instructor, Wyatte, played a huge role in making the experience as successful and enjoyable as it was. From day one, he was there every morning with a clear plan, a calm presence, and a patient teaching style that helped us stay focused and motivated. He took the time to explain complex concepts in a way that made sense, and he always encouraged questions and deeper understanding.

The course was well structured, with daily flights that gave us hands-on practice, followed by in-depth oral sessions to reinforce everything we learned in the air. Within just two weeks, we were confidently flying approaches, reading IFR plates, managing the cockpit workload, and answering oral exam questions with ease.

This program doesn’t just check boxes, it truly prepares you to be a competent and safe instrument rated pilot. I highly recommend AFIT to anyone who wants to earn their IFR rating through an accelerated program that helps you become a better pilot and delivers lasting knowledge.
