Commercial pilot training

If you don’t have required level of license (Commercial Pilot License) or you don’t meet Aeronautical requirements and need more hours or additional training – we can offer you all available programs starting from PPL up to ATPL at SkyEagle Aviation Academy.

Also, pay attention – to be qualified for ATP ME you can hold CPL with single-engine class of airplane only, but you have to have 50 hours of multi-engine time (25 hours can be in a simulator), this 50 hours can be “dual” (with instructor). We can help you to get the required time.
