COMMAND FLIGHT TRAINING
GA READY COURSE - $3490
GA Ready Course
For the past 15 years Command Flight Training has been preparing and sending fresh CPL pilots up north to gain their first job in the commercial general aviation (GA) industry.
We've been running big six-seater familiarisation GA Ready courses on demand using various different models of the Piper Lance/Saratoga, retractable familiarisation using the Arrow and (when available) the Cessna Stationair and Centurion family.
Utilised for their high useful load, robustness and speed, these aircraft are the workhorse of the Australian GA charter world.
This course gets you ready to go North and get a job.
You can combine GA-ready with a Multi Engine rating at the same time for a discounted rate of $11,990.
Something to keep in mind, this is a minimum figure. If you do your study, you should get through in minimum time! Since this training is competency-based, you may need extra hours, but we will try and get you through in minimum time.
Our Course Includes
- 5hrs flight training in a Piper Lance or Arrow
- 2 x 1-hour pre flight briefings
- Briefing on six-seater single aircraft systems i.e MPPC & retractable
- Letter of recommendation signed by our Chief Pilot (provided you meet the standard)
- CV/Resume character reference
Flight training includes:
