All instruction is done one on one. We work at your pace. Flight and ground school will be scheduled in (2) hour blocks each. We recommend a minimum of two flight/ground school lessons per week (8 hours total), with a third lesson of either flight or ground depending on what you need the most for a total of (10) hours of training per week.
