AVIATECH FLIGHT ACADEMY

PRIVATE PILOTS LICENSE - PPL

On successfully completing a Private Pilots License (PPL), a pilot can fly the aircraft type they got trained on. They are allowed to do conversions to different types and models of aircraft as per SACAA regulations. With this license, a pilot is not allowed to fly for any type of reward. It is purely for those that wish to fly for the enjoyment of it. Various ratings are available for a PPL pilot and this can all be done under one roof, with Aviatech Flight Academy.

COMMERCIAL PILOTS LICENSE - CPL

After a student completes their PPL, they can immediately start building hours towards their Commercial Pilots License (CPL). Generally, when a student wishes to start a career as a professional pilot, they will take on and complete this license. There are a few SACAA requirements that need to be met before the student will receive their CPL. At Aviatech Flight Academy, we offer advanced training and hour building of 200 Hours of Coastal and Cross Border flying towards your CPL.

AIRLINE TRANSPORT PILOTS LICENSE - ATPL

The airline transport pilot licence (ATPL), is the highest level of aircraft pilot certificate. Those certified as airline transport pilots (unconditional) are authorized to act as pilot in command on scheduled air carrier aircraft's. This Course takes a lot of dedication and commitment and requires a total of 1500 Hours flight time.
