Course Structure
• Theory: The course includes 125 hours of theoretical lessons, which will take place from Monday to Friday in the afternoon, for approximately 4 hours per day. The theoretical lessons will be held in the classroom, but, based on the students' needs, there is the possibility of conducting the entire theoretical course in e-learning mode.
• Practice: The 30 hours of flight scheduled in the course will begin once approximately 70% of the theoretical program is completed. Specifically, 25 hours of flight will be conducted using aircraft such as C152, C182, PA28R, C182Q, and CAP10, while the remaining 5 hours will be on FNPTII simulator, specifically on the ALSIM ALX model.
Flight scheduling is organized on a weekly basis, adapting to each student's individual availability. The airport is operational and available to students every day of the week, from Monday to Sunday, offering the opportunity to fly according to their needs.
Final Exams
At the end of the theoretical course and after completing all scheduled flight missions, students who are deemed suitable will face the practical exam. This exam will be conducted in flight by an external ENAC Inspector.

The course will run continuously for a duration of approximately 3-6 months. The scheduling of the theoretical part is the responsibility of the school, while the practical part will be organized based on individual student availability.
