Private Pilot License (PPL)
Do you always turn your eyes skywards whenever you see an aeroplane or a helicopter passing overhead ?
There are a lot of working and business professionals who could not pursue their dreams of piloting an aeroplane due to various reasons earlier in life. However, they have nursed that silent desire ever since. There is yet another class of individuals who fancy ‘Flight’ but cannot, or do not want to, be commercial pilots.
By obtaining a PPL, all those dreams of being in air, with the controls in your own hands, can be fulfilled. A PPL holder can fly an aircraft as a pilot anytime he wants except for carrying passengers for remuneration.
So, if the world of Aviation constantly piques your curiosity, and you keep wondering what it would be like to be in charge of a modern cockpit, while having a bird’s eye view from up above, then join the Pilot Training Program of SkyWize Aviation.
