EFG and Falcon will shortly be offering PPL & ATPL Ground School via our partner BSA.
British School of Aviation operates the Padpilot program designed to cater for modular distance learning or full-time study.
To become an airline pilot, or any type of commercial pilot, trainee pilots must pass the theoretical knowledge exams for a Commercial Pilot’s Licence (CPL) or Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL). This classroom phase of pilot training is known as ‘ATPL theory’, or ‘ATPL ground school’.
This theory is the academic foundation of your career, so it’s essential to understand it. Airlines recruit pilots whom they believe will fit into their organisation well and will easily complete all phases of training. They look for pilots who can demonstrate an intelligent approach to flight operations and have the depth of knowledge needed to navigate unexpected challenges.

EFG students say…
“Gaining my PPL is my greatest achievement and was made even more special by learning at such a great and well run flight school. This stems from the quality of the aircraft on offer and the high level of instructing experienced throughout my training. I would thoroughly recommend EFG flight school.”
