Career
Pilot School’s fleet
is made up of single and multi engine, “conventional” aircraft.
We do not believe in training students to fly Technically Advanced
Aircraft (glass panel), as the transition from “steam gauges” to
“glass” is a very natural progression, and one to be done on the
equipment you will be hired to fly.
The
aircraft types we utilize in our training programs are the Piper
Twin Comanche, the Piper Warrior, the
Piper Archer, the Piper Arrow,
and the Cessna 152. All of our aircraft are
equipped for day, night, and instrument flight. Our fleet is
meticulously maintained to the highest possible standards by our
maintenance facility. We are always looking to expand the size of
our fleet to meet our growing student demands. You will not find a
nicer fleet of “conventional” aircraft anywhere.
