The courses are aimed at providing students with the knowledge required to serve as professional pilot, and / or to fly by instruments. Courses are organized as self-study blocks interspersed with consultations at our premises in person with experienced tutors - mostly professional pilots or specialists in the field in question. Graduates are ready to take official theory exams with the Czech Civil Aviation Authority.
