Single Engined Commercial Pilot Licence SE-CPL(A)
The Single Engine CPL is a 25 hour syllabus covering General Handling, Instrument Flying and Visual Navigation. Initial training will be conducted on a PA28 Warrior, followed by an Arrow IV complex single aircraft which is required by the JAA for the issue of a CPL. You will be trained by one of our four highly experienced instructors who will provide uncompromisingly high standards of training on a one-to-one basis.
The recommended route for candidates who have a view to an airline career is the Multi Engine CPL.
