The PPL course offers you the training and experience you need to obtain an extendable licence. At Leicestershire Aero Club, all of our training is approved by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and combines both practical flight training and the theoretical knowledge required to fly light aeroplanes within the UK and Europe.
PPL training requires a minimum of 45 hours flying time including ten hours solo, ending with a skills test with an examiner where you will need to prove your general handling and navigation skills.
Training is typically done in a Cessna 152, a small 2 seater training aircraft. You will have the option to upgrade to train in a larger 4 seat aircraft if you prefer.
45 hours is the CAA minimum hour requirement but you should be aware that more training time may be required to achieve test standards. This is determined by your own abilities.
There are 9 written examinations to complete which are all multiple choice and require a 75% pass mark.
They can be taken at your convenience at Leicester Airport and include:
Our experienced instructors will support you throughout your training. Typically you will be booked training sessions in 2 hours blocks, for which you will fly for 60 to 90 minutes. You only pay for the time spent in the aircraft, your pre and post-flight briefings with your instructor are free. You can fly as often as you like but we recommend that you should aim to fly at least once a week as regular flying experience plays an important role in the training.
Leicestershire Aero Club offers flying lessons, training for a private pilots licence, a range of flying experiences and a whole lot more. We operate at Leicester Airport and we’ve been at the centre of the Leicestershire flying community since 1909.
In this Fear Of Flying Course you will spend time in a Boeing 737 Full Motion Flight Simulator while you learn about flight and experience it in complete safety in an effort to overcome any anxiety.
The Private Pilot Licence is a minimum 45 hour course. Of which 10 hours minimum will be solo. It has to include 9 theory exams and a qualifying cross country of 156 nautical miles, then followed by a skills test (conducted in house).
