Need a Private Pilot License - Where Do You Go and What Do You Do?

I am going to assume that you have already made up your mind that you are going to get training in order to get your private pilot license. But where do you go? Well, the first thing you're going to need to do, before you go ANYWHERE, is to make sure that you understand what the requirements are for getting a license to fly. These requirements are going to vary depending on where you live though.
Just enter "private pilot license requirements FAA" at Google's search engine, and look for the FAA site. There, you can find all the requirements for getting a license. If you live somewhere else or internationally, simply type in the name of the country after "private pilot license requirements" There may or may not be specific info for your area.

After you understand what the requirements are, the next step is to find a flight school. This gets a little tricky as you always want to research the school first before joining. Check with the BBB (Better Business Bureau) to see if there are any complaints. This is a must.

For getting info in flight schools and reviews, you might want to start with this site: http://www.aopa.org/learntofly/startfly/chooseschool.html

They have a lot of good info there. You don't want to choose a school just on price alone. There is an old saying, you get what you pay for. A school with a good, long reputation, is probably going to cost a little more than a fly-by-night. It's worth it.

Once you have narrowed down your search to a few candidates, go and interview them. That's right. YOU'RE the employer, so let THEM sell YOU. Follow these simple tips and you should come away with a flight school worth going to.
