frequently asked questions

You’ve probably heard the term “Online Ground School”. And while we do provide Online Ground School, this is the course that everyone else forgot to make when they made a ground school. It’s the “what-you-need-to-know-before-you-fly” course. You really need to know the steps and the process, otherwise you could waste months (or years) of time and waste thousands of dollars. 

No. You’re already getting head of yourself. That’s what Online Ground School is for. This course is what you need to know before ever getting started, helping guide you through important life and financial decisions as you begin. But don’t worry, our Online Ground School is here when you need to take your Written Test. 

I’ve seen aviation from all different angles. After having gone through it myself, and having mentored hundreds of would-be pilots, the advice is solid and founded in a deep base of knowledge. Everyone has their own journey, however, and learning to fly can be attacked in many different ways. My goal with this course is to explain many of the options, then leave it up to you to pursue. With knowledge comes power, and once done with this course, you’ll have plenty of both. 

Yes. That’s exactly where we start in this course. We try to assume you know nothing about the process, and build you up from that place. You’ll go from having nothing but a passion, to feeling like you want to get started NOW be the time you finish. 

The more the merrier! We have a comment section underneath each video lesson, and we’ll be answering your questions along the way. That way we can help you exactly where you’re at now in the process. 

Yes, we have both a community where you can participate in a social-like feed, and even live chat. Additionally, the comment section is helpful as well. 

Yes. There’s zero obligation. We don’t take your cards card information, and require minimal contact information.
