Private Pilot License
The Private Pilot License is a great way to enjoy the world of aviation with family and friends. Having a PPL allows you to act as the pilot-in-command of an aircraft carrying goods or people, as long as it is not for compensation or hire.
We at Ayla have come up with a very flexible approach to obtaining your PPL. You can have it done on a full time basis, or if you have other commitments, we can work around them and come up with a very comfortable schedule based on your availability. The schools location in Aqaba, with its great flying weather, insures that your weather related delays are almost negligible. Our main concern is that you leave Ayla feeling confident and safe, and that you make the most out of your time with us.
We highly recommend that you start self studying before you join the course. This will leave you a lot more time, once you are here in Aqaba, to just be focused on your flying skills. We do assure though that our highly qualified instructors will be here for any queries you might have, and to make sure you have a thorough understanding of all subject matters.
The course follows a syllabus that starts off with your discovery flight, and goes onto basic maneuvers and emergency procedures. One of the greatest moments you will experience throughout the course is your first ever solo flight. This culminates with your check ride and the issuance of your Private Pilot License. As the famous quote says, when once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return!
