Sporty’s Learn to Fly course is still the most complete, featuring three courses in one – preparing pilots for Private, Recreational or Sport Pilot.

One course includes Private, Recreational & Sport Pilot options

Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course offers a new approach to pilot training, bringing the proven techniques from Sporty’s own flight school to pilots’ homes. Aspiring pilots will no longer have to decide which certificate to pursue when purchasing a training course. The Learn to Fly Course provides learning tracks for Private, Recreational and Sport pilot–or any combination.

“This modular approach to learning to fly provides for a more modern and personalized learning experience,” says Sporty’s Academy President Eric Radtke.

For one price, Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course provides all the training material and test preparation necessary to pass all three tests and be prepared for real-world flying, but the options don’t stop there. Pilots may choose to learn via DVD, online or through a dedicated app for iPad or iPhone.

“Just as it’s tough for a college freshman to pick a major, it’s equally difficult for a new pilot to know whether he or she wants to be a Sport, Recreational or Private Pilot,” says Radtke. “With Sporty’s Learn to Fly course, we offer all three. And the course’s modular design means pilots have the option to begin with solo, sport or recreational, then transition to the Private Pilot later if they desire.”

Just like Sporty’s other training courses, Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course goes beyond a boring lecture or talking-head approach. Dynamic, in-flight footage easily clarifies complex material, while 3-D animations simplify more difficult topics such as weather theory and aerodynamics. Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course also comes with exclusive content that can’t be found anywhere else, like invaluable tips from legendary author Richard L. Collins in Air Facts segments.

Also provided with Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course is Sporty’s Training Course Outline (syllabus) and Practical Test Standards Study Guide that references every element of the PTS to specific video training segments. A written Test Endorsement is available right from the course after using the powerful test preparation program with three modes of operation for study or simulated exams.

In addition to new content, new formats are also available. The all-new online version, which includes everything in the DVD course, is built with the latest HTML5 technology so it is compatible with Windows, Mac, PC, iPad and Android tablets. In addition, a native iPad/iPhone app is now available in the App Store for mobile users. Pilots can watch video, take practice tests and more on their mobile devices–without an internet connection.

Sporty’s stands by its training with the Learn to Fly Course. You’re guaranteed to pass all three tests – the written test, the oral test and the flight test – using Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course or your money back.

Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course is available for $249 as an online course [1753A]; in DVD format [7310A]; or as an iPad/iPhone App [2891A] and may be ordered by calling 1-800-SPORTYS or online at sportys.com/courses.
