“I dreamed I was able to fly, but in such a 

way that I seemed catapulted into the air 

and lost all control. The feeling of flying was 

exalting, but soon turned to fear when I was 

helplessly torn upward to higher and higher 

altitudes. At that point I made the saving 

discovery that I could regulate the rise or 

fall of my flight by holding or releasing my 

breath. “

After being rewarded with the private pilot certificate 

the trainee will attend the ATPL theoretical course. This 

course will give the trainees the knowledge needed for 

flight training up to the ATPL level. After passing the ATPL 

exams, the student will also meet JAA requirements. 

While attending the ATPL theoretical course the trainee 

could start the instrument qualification flight training 

(IR). Upon completion of IR, the trainee will continue 

with commercial flight training and then proceed to multi 

engine training. 

Flying Academy is a leading flight school in Czech Republic. 

We keep pace with new trends in aviation and use modern training 

procedures, equipment and materials. 

Flight Training 

We use the Cessna C152 for initial flight training, which 

is an ideal two-seat training aircraft. The Cessna C152 

is notable for its economical operation, easy control and 

very good flying attributes. 

For advanced training we provide the entirely new fourseater 

Cirrus SR20-G2, currently the best aircraft in the 

category of small planes with integrated avionics, so 

called “Glass cockpit” Avidyne Flight Max Entegra. 

Moreover, we offer a four-seat Piper Archer III (PA28- 

181), equipped with conventional instruments and two 

combined Nav/Comm/GPS Garmin GNS 430 receivers. 

Theoretical training 

Theoretical training takes the form of interactive courses 

ultimately using all modern materials. 

Our students all have access to our library, training PC 

software and video archive, including the highest quality 

training materials presently available. Our library is 

constantly updated. 

Training and test portal 

Flying Academy is the only flight school in the Czech 

Republic to own and provide an online testing portal 

containing more than 14 000 test questions from all 

aviation subjects. 

This testing portal significantly contributes to higher 

training effectiveness. Supporting this is the fact that most 

of the students attending Flying Academy pass the Civil 

Aviation Authority exams at the first attempt. 


our theoretical courses and flight training our theoretical courses and flight training 

Our lecturers and instructors are strictly selected, most of them 

with professional experience in major airlines. 

ATR 42 Simulator 

Flying Academy carries out the training on an ATR 42 

simulator provided by Czech Airlines, which is supervised 

only by professionally trained airline pilots. 

The simulator is certified as FNTP II. It is able to simulate 

engine failures, flights in unfavourable weather conditions 

and many other failures and defects that students might 

come up with during a flight and we will prepare you for 

these situations. Precisely graphically processed airport 

and land features help to increase the realism of the 

simulation. 

The simulator is mostly used for IFR flight training and 

students are able to fly as many as 25 hours of IFR 

training. The other possible use of the simulator is for 

PPL training, where the student can exercise up to 5 flight 

hours. The simulator is also suitable for MCC training. 

When attending the IFR training, our goal is not to teach 

you how to control the ATR-42 or one engine failure 

procedures. During the IFR training the simulator is 

used as a single-pilot and single-engine airplane. The 

simulated IFR training stresses perfect control of IFR 

flights by simulating limited weather conditions, unusual 

flight attitudes and situations, real life demonstrations of 

which would hardly be performable and even dangerous 

for students and their instructors. 

Do not forget the fact that simulated flight is a part of 

interview and selection procedures in many countries and 

airlines. Thanks to the intensive training on our simulator 

you will be well prepared for this exam. 

Simulator ATR 42 is very effectively used for training and cockpit 

fully corresponds to modern aircraft.

frozen ATPL in smooth succession, and under the banner 

of one organization (a plus to most airlines). 

With in less than 12 months you get CPL - Commercial 

pilot licence, ME - Multi engine rating, IR - Instrument 

rating, “Frozen” ATPL - Airline transport pilot license 

(theoretical course) with minimum of 200 flight hours and 

25 simulator hours. 

You will met all requirements to apply for airline job as a 

copilot. 


The modules in the Flying Academy course are: 

• Private Pilot’s Licence (PPL) 

• Night Qualification 

• ATPL Theoretical Knowledge Instruction 

• Hour Building 

• Instrument Rating (IR) 

• Commercial Pilot’s Licence (CPL) 

• Multi Engine Land Class Rating (MEPL) 

We understand that is hard for someone who is new to 

understand how everything works and what to do in which 

sequence. 

We just offering tree version which you can combination 

as you like. The best is chose in beginning Economy 

version for Private pilot training PPL and later on you can 

chose training according your needs. 

Is generally large discussion weather to make Instrument 

Rating IR on simulator ATR 42 or just use chepper version 

and fly all Instrument rating in aircraft or use cheeper 

version FNTP II simulator Seneca V. There is also many 

different opinion whether use Glass cocpit aircraft with 

philosophy similar to airliner or go with cheapest version. 

This dicition you can make later on when you start 

with Instrument rating. Mean time you will have more 

information and knowledge. 

Price list is design according our best knowledge and 

covers all expenses in fact that trainee proceed without 

any problems. 

Times in each module are minimum according JAR FCL 

1 regulations. 80% students without problems meet JAA 

requirements but just please keep in mind you may need 

some additional lessons. They are of course for additional 

charge. 

Landing and communication fees are calculated as 

average. In fact you chose to fly on international airports 

often they may be slightly higher. 

Medical, insurance is not include, because most of the 

students have their own from theirs countries. 

CAA fees are not included, because they are paid by 

students directly to particular CAA. 

When you compare prices with other flight school please 

compare aples with aples. Many school has hidden 

expenses. For example see that we include also cost 

for check rides( above JAA regulation minimum hours), 

landing and communication fees as well as execive 

ground school trainning and briefing and debriefing for 

each flight. 

We do not require any large deposit. Our policy is paid as 

you go. We only require positive balance on your school 

account which is accessible via Internet.
