Ground Theory Course Details
The Ground Theory course is a critical component of pilot training, providing the theoretical knowledge required to operate an aircraft safely and efficiently. It covers various aviation-related subjects, including navigation, meteorology, air law, and aircraft systems. The course prepares aspiring pilots for the theoretical exams necessary to obtain their pilot licenses, such as CPL or PPL, and lays the foundation for safe and informed decision-making in flight.
Course Objectives
Provide a comprehensive understanding of the principles of flight and aircraft operations.
Ensure knowledge of aviation regulations and legal requirements.
Equip students with essential skills in navigation, meteorology, and flight planning.
Prepare students for written exams required for obtaining a pilot's license.
Course Structure
Duration: Typically, 6 to 12 months, depending on the level of study (e.g., CPL, PPL).
Class Format: A combination of classroom lectures, online learning, simulations, and self-study.
