This intensive 9-week program provides a focused, peer-group environment for young aviators to rapidly progress towards their Private Pilot checkride.
The San Carlos Flight Center Young Aviators Summer Program is a 9-week intensive flight training program designed for young pilots typically aged 16-20. Participants engage in daily ground briefing sessions, flight training, classroom instruction, and homework assignments. The program aims to equip students with a deep knowledge of aerodynamics, regulations, and aircraft systems, alongside developing essential flight skills and safe decision-making. Successful completion prepares students for a Private Pilot checkride, covering nearly all required training. The curriculum emphasizes competency standards with clear performance measurements and utilizes real-world, scenario-based training. Students will gain hands-on experience with aircraft operations and systems, working towards becoming safe, competent, and proficient pilots.
A typical day runs from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, and includes daily ground briefing sessions, flight training, classroom training, and associated homework assignments.
This program is ideal for high school students (typically age 16-20) who are seriously interested in an intensive, focused path to becoming a certificated private pilot.
