ATF1108L

This is the first of two courses needed to complete the training required for the FAA Private Pilot Certificate for single-engine airplanes and covers the first of three stages of private pilot training: pre-solo flight. It includes 17 hours of dual flight instruction and 4.2 hours of pre-/post-flight briefings with an FAA-approved flight instructor. The course requirements for this class are met when the student completes their first solo flight. After completing this course, students take Primary Flight II to meet the requirements for the Private Pilot Certificate. Note 1: This course is **NOT** approved for, nor covered by, the GI Bill®. Costs for this course are the sole responsibility of the student. Note 2: For the Private Pilot Certificate, at least 35 hours of ground instruction are required by FAA regulations. FSCJ teaches this content, using College faculty, via ATT 1100 Private Pilot Theory and ATT 1101 Private Pilot Applications classes. It should be noted that the hours above are based on FAA-syllabus minimums, and students will often exceed these minimum hours. The costs for these additional flight hours are **not** covered by the course fee. **Pilot students are expected to fly at least 3 flights per week, not counting Sundays.** Students who cannot commit to such a schedule are not likely to pass. This course also has special requirements which students must meet prior to enrolling: 1. Students must hold a minimum of an FAA 3rd Class medical certificate. 2. Students must be U.S. citizens or have TSA authorization to start flight training, and 3. Students must meet with the Program Manager to verify documentation, review course requirements and flight training costs.Florida State College at Jacksonville provides flight instruction through a College-contracted flight school.
