Aircraft Pilot Training Technology<br />
With aviation experience dating back over 50 years, TSTC has been<br />
a proud provider of professional pilots throughout the aviation<br />
industry. Our students get first-class education with h<strong>and</strong>s-on<br />
training in the world’s most popular training aircraft, along with<br />
classroom <strong>and</strong> one-on-one ground instruction with industry<br />
professionals. <strong>Student</strong>s spend most of their time learning by doing<br />
while training to become industry professionals. All Aircraft Pilot<br />
Training students must submit an application to the program after<br />
being accepted as TSTC students. The application includes providing<br />
evidence of a Class II flight physical <strong>and</strong> a current Class II medical<br />
record. All new students must successfully complete a Texas Success<br />
Initiative evaluation (or equivalent) <strong>and</strong> any necessary remedial<br />
academic courses before registering for classes in the APT program.<br />
Flight costs vary per term <strong>and</strong> are subject to change due to variables<br />
such as fluctuating fuel <strong>and</strong> flight-time costs.<br />
Aircraft Pilot Training is available at the Waco campus.<br />
