Only learning to fly is better
In our approved training organisation (ATO) flight school with our experience we train you competent, individually and throughout the year. Our flight instructors have more than 20,000 flight hours of flight experience and come all from practical flight operations. Among other things, they are also recognized flight examiners domestically / abroad by the aviation authorities.
In our ATO you can acquire pilot licenses and type ratings recognized by aviation authorities, and also carry out check and training flights on helicopters and airplanes. We create an individual training plan tailored to your needs without fixed deadlines (except for those required by the authorities). On request, we can accompany you throughout your career with advanced training, type ratings and annual check flights.
Are you enthusiastic about flying and would you like to fulfill your dream of flying or are you even planning to start a new professional future? With a trial flight or trial day, you can take a seat in the pilot seat yourself and experience the feeling of flying and working as a pilot.
Applicants for a PPL(H) must be at least 17 years old to be granted a license, at least 16 years old at the start of training and before the first solo flight. A valid class 2 medical certificate at the start of training is required.
Furthermore, a reliability check according to §7 and information from the Central Card Index for Traffic Offences must be requested as proof of the reliability and fitness to fly for the applicant. But don't worry, registered traffic offenses are not necessarily a reason to exclude from flying. But if necessary, this must be checked with the responsible authority in the individual case.
The level of knowledge and personality of the student must enable him to follow the theoretical and practical lessons. In particular, knowledge of German or English must be sufficient.
Theoretical training usually takes place via distance learning but can also take place on request full- or part-time in individual or group lessons. At least 100 hours are planned for the theoretical training and usually lasts from 4 weeks to 24 months. This depends on your personal time. The more time you invest, the faster you will reach your goal of being a pilot.
Training subjects are: - Air law - Flight performance and flight planning - Human performance abilities - Operational procedures - General aviation knowledge - Meteorology - Navigation - Aerodynamics - Theory of the respective aircraft type(s) - And the radio communication certificate BZF1, BZF2 or AZF;
From the outset of the training you can directly start with the theory and the practical training, but the first solo flight may only take place when all theoretical examination subjects have been passed with the competent authority and the radio communication certificate is available. The first solo flight may not take place before the 20th flight hour.
The PPL(H) training takes place exclusively during the day. Night flight is not part of the PPL(H) training and is therefore not intended. The training takes place exclusively on the aircraft based at EDFB Reichelsheim Airport. The training or part of it can also take place at another location on request and upon approval. Simulator training is not planned. The practical training consists of the following parts Min. 45 total hours on airplanes Min. 25 flight hours with a flight instructor Min. 5 hours cross-country flying Min. 10 hours monitored solo flight Min. one triangular flight of 185 km / 100 NM and 2 completely completed landings.
The practical test then takes place with an authority-appointed examiner on the aircraft type of your choice.
At the beginning of their training, our flight students receive a starter package with all the important material, as well as access to the theoretical documents as an eBook (paper-print on demand).
With a successfully passed Private Pilot License, you are allowed to fly helicopters in all EU countries using the helicopter type as stated in your pilot license, as well as transporting (non-commercial) passengers. These passengers are allowed to contribute to the cost of the flight, but without the intention of making a profit.
LAPL(H), PPL(A) or PPL(B) licenses are being recognized for the PPL(H) training and therefore reducing the training requirements.
Theory Recognition
For the issue of a PPL(H) license, the theoretical knowledge of the holder of a LAPL or higher in another aircraft category is fully credited to the general subject areas. These credits also apply to applicants for a pilot license who have already successfully passed the theoretical test for the issue of this license in another aircraft category, as long as this is within the period of validity. However, these applicants must effectively complete a scaled-down, bridge course on the basics of flying, operational procedures, flight performance and flight planning, general aircraft knowledge and navigation and take an exam at the competent authority.
Practice Recognition
Applicants who hold a pilot's license for another aircraft category exception for balloons receive a credit of 10% of their total flight time as a pilot in command (PIC) on such aircraft for up to 6 hours.
The scope of this credit in no case covers the requirements of the 10 hours of monitored solo flight, with at least 5 hours of solo cross-country flying consisting at least of one cross-country flight of no less than 185 km (100 NM), whereby fully completed landings were carried out at two airports other than the starting airport.
Applicants for a PPL(H) must be at least 17 years old to be granted a license, at least 16 years old at the start of training and before the first solo flight. A valid class 2 medical certificate at the start of training is required.
Furthermore, a reliability check according to §7 and information from the Central Card Index for Traffic Offences must be requested as proof of the reliability and fitness to fly for the applicant. But don't worry, registered traffic offenses are not necessarily a reason to exclude from flying. But if necessary, this must be checked with the responsible authority in the individual case.
The level of knowledge and personality of the student must enable him to follow the theoretical and practical lessons. In particular, knowledge of German or English must be sufficient.
Optionally you have the option of acquire the LAPL(A) (light aircraft pilot license) from us.
The LAPL(A) entitles the holder to operate aircraft with a maximum take-off weight of 2000 kg.
Up to three passengers can be carried following an additional confirmed 10 hours as pilot in command after receiving the license.
The license is recognized in the EU countries and is less extensive to acquire. However, if you plan to continue to develop further in terms of flying, i.e. flying with multi-engine aircraft, upgrading to instrument flight or to professional pilot – For those who want to carry more than three passengers the internationally valid PPL(A) is recommended.
Minimum Requirements for the LAPL(A):
Only a minimum of 30 hours on the plane are required. Containing:
