Like most of us once, we have decided to embark on an adventure, we are anxious to get right at it. It is no different when it comes to one wanting to obtain their private pilot?s license. Once of the first questions you probably want to answer is how much of your time is it going to take to achieve your goal. There is no one answer to this. Its dependant on many factors. First, it depends on the location of your training and what is available. Are there several training facilities or just one? Do they operate full time or part time? Is there a waiting list to get in? These are all questions geared towards how long it will take.

If you have begun your research into becoming a licensed private pilot then you have discovered that there are two major training segments that you must complete. First the pre solo segment then the post solo segment.

All prospective pilots must complete high school. A college-preparatory curriculum is recommended because of the need for pilots to have at least some college education.
