Below are some of the advantages of UND’s Accelerated Pilot Training Program:
Fast Track Your Career
An average professional pilot training course can take between two to four years. This not only requires a substantial financial commitment but also eats up valuable time. At UND Aerospace Foundation, our curriculum will take you from zero flight experience to commercial pilot certification in a fraction of that time.
Cost-Effective
The cost of becoming a professional pilot through traditional college-based aviation programs can be hefty. At UND Aerospace Foundation, we can help you save money by getting you into the cockpit and helping you master your flying skills within a shorter amount of time.
Additionally, our Phoenix flight training center has been granted examining authority by the FAA, meaning your certificate-granting exams can be administered by our staff in-house. This means our students don’t need to enlist the services of an FAA Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE), which can greatly reduce the financial and logistical burden of obtaining your license.
Work With Industry-Leading Professionals
Our FAA-certified instructors are the best in the business with years of experience in aviation and flight training. This extensive knowledge, combined with our state-of-the-art facilities, will ensure you develop all the skills needed to excel in the aviation industry in record time.
Upon enrollment in our fast track program, students are intuitively guided through a personalized flight training plan that is designed to make you a world-class aviator.
Our lessons and curriculum are structured to quickly build upon each skillset and progress you through your flight training while adhering to standard FAA part 141/61 regulations.
