Local Flight Schools Near Me
If you’re browsing for local flight schools near me, stop what you’re doing to consider the merits of Paragon Flight for all student pilots, even those who have to travel to attend. We offer a ton of benefits that you won’t find at other flight schools.
Paragon Flight offers three different flight school locations for ample access and top-notch settings. Our homes lie in Page Field (FMY) in Fort Myers, FL; Punta Gorda Airport (PGD) in Punta Gorda, FL; and LaGrange-Callaway Airport (LGC) in LaGrange, GA. These airports provide modern facilities and runways, flight-friendly weather for most of the year, and centralized locations for easy access and practice.
We have a quality reputation that we’ve earned over many years of operations, and we consistently strive to live up to that reputation. Our efforts have been repeatedly recognized by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), and we offer many flight training opportunities for personal, commercial, and military pursuits. Begin by pursuing your Private Pilot License (PPL) and progress from there as far as your ambitions require!
If your ambitions call you to work as an airline pilot, consider the P3 Professional Pilot Program, an accelerated, affordable way for you to graduate from zero experience to being a commercially licensed pilot with flight instructor privileges in fewer than ten months. This process typically takes well over two years.
One of the key differences of Paragon Flight is the fact that we operate under both FAA Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Parts 61 and 141. With this dual authorization, we can cater to the scheduling demands of working adults and traditional college-age students with full-time availability.
The designation as a Part 141 school enables us to accept students from overseas who have M-1 Student Visas, and we can provide the I20 forms needed for their applications. We also can work with veterans who’d like to use GI benefits and traditional students with government-backed student loans, grants, and aviation scholarships.
Our lengthy history has also provided us with contacts to whom we can refer student pilots who require personal lending sources. Whatever the financial situation, allow our team to help you work through the maze of potential opportunities.
Interested? Consider a Discovery Flight. This experience is an excellent gift for anyone interested in flight to see how deep that interest goes and whether flight training is appropriate for personal or professional pursuits. During this occasion, participants will have a mini-lesson and time in the sky, complete with a short period of control of the aircraft, and these hours will count toward any future pilot ambitions.
We offer a fantastic choice of programs based on top-quality flight instructors, curriculum, and aircraft.
The instructors here at Paragon Flight have diverse experience and a high degree of dedication. Our best practices include a best-fit promise that makes sure our students have a trainer with a complementary teaching style and personality. Our students should never feel uncomfortable during training.
We also use the best curriculum with the Jeppesen system and the most appropriate aircraft, fully equipped with Glass Cockpit technology for transferable skills for today’s aircraft.
