Private Pilot licence

We offer the Skyborne FAA (ICAO) Private Pilot Licence training (PPL), as well as hour building packages from our state-of-the-art training centre based in Vero Beach, Florida. When completing the FAA PPL and the additional hour building package, you will meet the mandatory 169 hours requirement to embark on our UK CAA Combined Modular pathway. 

At Skyborne, we apply the same professional airline standards to every part of your training.

PPL builds a solid foundation, which is the bedrock to safe leisure flying, whilst providing the key foundations for the further demands of commercial flying if that is your aspiration. You will benefit from our state-of-the-art facilities, modern aircraft and simulators which are all delivered by our highly experienced and talented instructional team.
