When: June 16 - August 8

This structured program allows aspiring pilots to potentially earn their Private Pilot Certificate in the same environment as our University flight students. Regardless of the student's flight experience, this program is designed to provide the knowledge necessary for qualified students¹ to successfully pass the FAA Private Pilot knowledge, flight, and oral exams. However, if the student has previously attended our SunFlight Solo program, they typically finish this course in a more efficient manner. 

Tuition includes supervised housing, on-campus meals, course fees, ground lab instruction, flight materials, books, and a non-refundable $30 registration fee.

Students must be 17 years old by July 29 to enroll in the SunFlight Private Pilot Program. Additionally, all participants must obtain an FAA Medical/ Student Pilot Certificate². 

*Final completion of certificated rating is not guaranteed. It is based on each students' abilities, and unforeseen circumstances, such as weather. In the event of a cancelled flight, we will do our absolute best to modify remaining flights and adjust the schedule to accommodate previously scheduled flight time. 

 ¹A qualified student is determined by the regulations set by the FAA, the discretion of the student's flight instructor and University faculty. 

 ²Student must possess a FAA Medical and a Student Pilot Certificate. The K-12 Education Outreach office will email directions for the Student Pilot Certificate upon receipt of your application.

 ³The tuition includes a deposit toward the flight fees of $19,000. Total flight costs vary and are dependent upon the student's abilities. Flight/Instruction fees will be due at the completion of each lesson.
