From the classroom to the cockpit: what awaits you during pilot training
Study the theory? Prove your multitasking skills in the simulator? Soar through the skies in a training aircraft? At the European Flight Academy locations, you and other pilot trainees from Switzerland will learn all this – and much more. Here is some information on our locations.
At Grenchen Airport, student pilots of European Flight Academy, who have applied to SWISS or Edelweiss Air, complete flights for sight and instrument flight training. During visual flight, they encounter an idyllic scenery: Grenchen is close to Lake Neuchâtel at the feet of the green hills of Jura. For the training, type Diamond DA40 and DA42 aircraft are available.
Zurich not only offers the largest airport in Switzerland but also the rich cultural range of a metropolis. At our Zurich site, we conduct theoretical and simulator training for students of European Flight Academy, who are trained according to the SWISS or Edelweiss Air model. Our training center is located close to the airport and is only 15 minutes away from the city center.
IIn almost-always-sunny Vero Beach, Florida, USA, ATPL student pilots of European Flight Academy complete their visual flight training. And upon their initial start from Municipal Airport, they are offered grand views of the Atlantic coast as well as excursions above the metropolis that is Miami.
At the Vero Beach site, Piper PA28, PA28R Arrow, and PA44 Seminole are available.
