learning plan
There are three levels to test an airplane driver's license: physical examination, theoretical knowledge and actual flight. Theoretical test and actual flight are carried out simultaneously. According to the regulations, the actual flight test must complete at least 40 hours of flight time, and the trainees will be evaluated by specially trained instructors.
(1), learning theory
Before boarding the plane, there are usually 60 hours of theoretical study courses. The main courses include: aviation theory (aerodynamics, navigation, engine principle, etc. ), aviation meteorology, human factors (the impact of flight on human physiology and psychology), land-air dialogue, aviation English. After the course, there will be nearly one month's review time, and then the Civil Aviation Administration will give students a unified PPL ground theory exam. Only by passing the theoretical examination can they be qualified for the next flight study.
(2) Practice flying
The flight practice course has a total of 48 hours, including 5 hours of simulator training, 3 1 hour of pilot training, 1-flight training 10 hour, and 2 hours of examination.
(3) Obtain a driving license
Finally, students take the PPL exam organized by the Civil Aviation Administration of China after receiving the phased examination of the school. If you pass the exam, you can get a private pilot's license.
