Flight Instruction from Private, Commercial to Certified Flight Instructor.

7 Steps In Learning To Fly

  1. Take a Discovery Flight – This is where it all starts. Book a Discovery Flight at LebanAir and begin your adventure into the world of aviation. With your Discovery Flight you receive a pre-flight briefing to prepare you for first flight, which will last approximately a half hour, and you get the chance to take the controls and feel the freedom of flight.
  2. Start your lessons – Flight lessons include both ground school and flight training.  Your flight training will be given in a Cessna 172, by our certified flight instructor, and you will control the airplane from your very first flight!
  3. Get an Aviation Medical Certificate – The FAA requires that all pilots have a medical certification from an approved Aviation Medical Examiner. We recommend Dr. Lloyd H. Wiggins in Corvallis, OR.
  4. Make Your First Solo Flight – Your first solo flight is the single most exciting thing that you will ever do! Once you have completed the first part of your flight instruction and demonstrated your skills as a pilot to your instructor, it’s time for you to really taste freedom.
  5. Fine-Tune Your Skills, Build Time, and Gain Experience – Now that you are free to fly solo, you must practice, practice, practice. But what could be more fun than “having” to fly? After approximately 40 hours of total flight time, most students are ready to begin their testing for a private pilot certificate.
  6. Take The Written Exam – The FAA administers a “written test” through an FAA approved Computer Assisted Testing Service (CATS) center. This test confirms your level of knowledge and preparedness for a check ride.  LebanAir offers a ground school with a live instructor that insures you will learn the materials and understand them.  You also have the option of computer based video home study courses.
  7. Take Your Check Ride – LebanAir considers your check ride a flight that we take together.  All of your training and practice leads to this one flight. Your aeronautical knowledge and skills are reviewed by an FAA examiner to give you the green light to flight. This is where you get to shine and make us all proud.
