Program Overview

The decision to become a pilot is one of the greatest in life. Flying is the most beautiful thing that can happen to you. It gives you freedom, the true freedom of movement, the flight, the climb, and the ability to glance beyond "the hills on the horizon".

Is flying your life and do you want the plane to be your job as well? We offer several courses for different levels of professional flying.

The Professional Pilot Program is our key commercial pilot program for international students working towards a career as an airline pilot. You will learn to fly at GUST Flight School which boasts state-of-the-art facilities, with approximately 100 single-and-multi engine aircraft as well as Flight Training Devices.

Our Professional Pilot Program, takes you from little or no flying experience to a qualified commercial pilot in as little as 15 months.

At our GUST Flight School, you will take part in a combination of classroom and practical professional pilot training.

Flying is individual in our school and each pupil gets their own access to the online reservation system and they order the flights themselves by following a few simple rules. Our dispatchers then assign the instructor and confirm the flight. So you don‘t wait for any opening dates, you can start flying immediately.

So how to start. First, it is good to realize what your aviation goal is. If you only want to fly for your own enjoyment with only a friend at your side, then flying an ultralight aircraft is just right for you. Some people imagine it as a "runaway tube" covered with a suspicious cloth. Ultra-light aircraft are no longer a product of foolish romantics risking their lives for a few moments of freedom. Although that period had its charm, it is gone by most measures and ultralight aircraft are now the professional products of reputable companies, which thanks to more flexible legislation can adapt to modern technology faster than adult aviation (from now on we use the correct name for "adult aircraft" - General Aviation Aircraft). Modern UL aircraft thus beat out General Aviation aircraft with their performance. They are excellent for sport flying and trips.

The basic UL pilot training curriculum is 20 flight hours. I would just like to point out that for all the curricula set out, this is an unbreakable minimum, the passing of which does not justify obtaining a license. In other words, you really need to learn everything well. Your training will end with a totally independent cross country navigation, when you fly to a foreign airport yourself and it is more than necessary for pilots to return home safely from such flights. We will not let anyone, who cannot do it safely, fly! This is a crucial condition for us.

However, if for some reason you want to fly for your entertainment, but UL aircraft do not attract you, general aviation aircraft are available for you. These are the notorious Cessna, machines that have taught the world to fly and you can find them constantly in operation from the equatorial forests, through the deserts, the world's largest agglomerations, to the polar caps. Some kind of Cessna flies on every continent, in every climate zone. The usual procedure is to start with a basic PPL (Privat Pilot License) training that includes at least 45 flight hours. If you already have a UL pilot license, this curriculum can be shortened by up to 10 hours. You cannot fly less than 35, but in basic training.

Part of the pilot training is the theoretical part. This is for UL, PPL and ATPL pilots online with instructors.

We also train helicopter pilots - PPL (H), helicopter business pilots - CPL (H). For both types of flying we also offer the training of instructors of aircraft and helicopters - FI (A), FI (H).

If a professional pilot's career is your desire, then you need to get the Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL). It begins with PPL training, then follows the so-called "Time Building". Sometimes it is called simply to "fly the hours". This is because all other licenses, their acquisition or training, are subject to different hours of flight. It is higher than basic training. So you have to fly, gain experience and then, for example, be interested in flight training according to the specific instrument. On the way to the ATPL, after PPL, you will have to get training for night flying - VFR Night, flying according to the instrument in single-engine and twin-engine machines - IFR SEP, IFR MEP, flying in so-called "complex aircraft", which is an aircraft with adjustable propeller, retractable landing gear and at least four seats in the cabin. Of course you will also fly the FNTP II flight simulator. You will practice flights to foreign controlled and uncontrolled airports and learn to land by the instrument.

Of course, you will also attend an extensive transport pilot theory lessons and tests at the CAA Aviation Authority. After having mastered all the theoretical and practical examinations, and after at least 200 flight hours, you become a transport pilot - ATPL frozen, when you can apply for a job with an airline.

Who Can Apply for Our Professional Pilot Program?

The Professional Pilot Program is open to international students looking to qualify as a pilot. By completing this professional pilot training, you will be qualified to apply to fly commercial aircraft for Europe airlines.

Course of the training

Theoretical part

It is set at 200 hours, or it can be part of a theoretical ATPL course of 650 hours. For IR qualification holders, the ATPL theoretical training is shortened to 450 hours.

Practical part

To obtain a CPL (A) pilot license, 25 hours is required, of which 20 hours are on a Cessna 150 and 5 hours on a C172 RG aircraft.

For IR qualification holders, 15 hours are required, of which 10 hours are on a Cessna 150 and 5 hours on a C172 RG aircraft.

Completing the course and obtaining a license

Theoretical examinations consist of a test at the Civil Aviation Authority, they may be taken during the practical training.

The practical part can be taken by the pupil only after passing the theoretical exams. Before the skill test, the student must have completed at least 200 hours of flying, of which 100 hours as pilot-in-command, including 20 hours of overflights as a pilot-in-command and he/she must be a holder of NIGHT qualification for night flights.

The practical part is reviewed by the examiner of the Civil Aviation Authority. The exam consists of a piloting technique and a cross country navigation to a controlled airport.

Private Pilot License (PPL)

Basic course for pilots on general aviation aircraft over 450 kg. The PPL license is the first step in a professional pilot's career. Flight training is conducted in accordance with PART-FCL regulations. Two types of aircraft can be used during training, such as the Cessna 150 and the Diamond DA40. The advantage is that you will already learn to fly with both types during basic training.
