Frequently asked questions
How old do I need to be?
You can join the P1-P2 Student Pilot course once you are 15.
Can I fly solo after P1-P2?

Are the courses official?
Yes. All courses follow THSF (Turkish Air Sports Federation) rules and certificates are issued through THSF.
How many students are in a course?
Under THSF rules, a course can have at most 15 students.
What if I don't finish the course?
Each level must be completed within one year, otherwise training starts over.
Which wing will I learn on?

No. The wing, harness, reserve and helmet you use during training are included in the course fee.
