DUAL TRAINING PROGRAM - UNITED STATES AND EUROPE
Approximate total duration of the program: 16 MONTHS
PHASE 1. LEARN TO FLY
Flight training in the United States
5 months in Naples, Florida
Florida has earned the prestigious title of being the “cradle of aviation” for pilot training worldwide. Its strategic location, ideal climate, and advanced infrastructure have made the state a hub for both military and civilian pilot training. Even the United States Armed Forces have established several pilot training centers in this region, recognizing Florida’s unparalleled conditions for flight practice. Florida is not only a training center for the U.S. Armed Forces but also attracts pilots from the militaries of several global powers, including the Spanish Army, who find the perfect environment to develop their skills here.
In particular, Florida’s west coast is considered the most exclusive area of the state, and Naples Airport stands out as a premier location for pilot training. This airport combines the modernity of a commercial facility with the professionalism of its communications, offering seamless connections between the control tower and pilots. These features create a safe and professional flight experience, ideal for trainee pilots looking to familiarize themselves with optimal flight operations.
Our training program in Florida is conducted under FAA regulations, providing our students with the quality and accessibility of this authority, while carefully tailored to also meet EASA requirements. This ensures that our students can transition seamlessly between the FAA and EASA training systems, achieving perfect alignment between the two and overcoming any regulatory differences with ease.
We boast a fleet of state-of-the-art aircraft and a team of top-tier instructors. Our commitment is to provide the best aviation learning experience, ensuring that our students receive high-quality training that meets international standards.

This accommodation, located next to Naples airport in a serene U.S. landscape, has been designed with every detail in mind for future commercial pilots. Here, comfort and inspiration come together in a space that is not only a place to rest, but also a point of connection with the passion for flying.
Training in the USA
Undertaking flight training in the U.S. is an excellent option for those seeking solid, quality training. In the American system, pilots must accumulate 1500 flight hours before they can join airlines, which drives many to work as instructors to achieve this goal without paying for the hours. This model ensures that only the best candidates, those with outstanding teaching skills and a true vocation, fill these positions. In addition, because the supply of instructors is constant, students face no delays in their training, allowing them to move forward without interruption on their path to becoming commercial pilots.

Training bases located in Spain
Jerez de la Frontera
Jerez has established itself in recent years as a true international benchmark in pilot training, considered the best location in Europe thanks to its favorable climate, safe environment and airport with advanced infrastructure. Located in Andalusia, in the south of Spain, this city enjoys more than 300 days of sunshine a year, which allows maximizing flight hours without interruptions, an essential factor for pilot training.
International and equipped with modern facilities, Jerez Airport offers the perfect balance for training: a controlled and professional space, with few commercial operations to slow down the pace of training. In addition, the environment is flat and stable, without the risks of mountainous areas, which adds an extra level of safety for pilots in training.
For students from all over the world, Jerez is an attractive destination not only for the quality of its education, but also for the cultural richness it offers. Living in Jerez allows students to experience a unique lifestyle, enjoy its heritage, gastronomy and Andalusian charm, creating a balance between academic rigor and cultural experience, with the added bonus of being one of the most affordable cities in Spain.
Jerez de la Frontera thus presents itself as an ideal destination for any student looking to train as a pilot in a professional, safe and enriching environment, with the support of a community passionate about aviation.
