If you want to start flying aircraft for sheer passion, or start a pilot career, you need a Pilot Private Licence. Achieving this licence allows you to fly and bring with you passengers although just for fun – i.e. not for business – giving you the possibility to fly all around Europe. The PPL course is divided into two parts: 100 hours of theory and 45 hours of practice, i.e. flying.

Basic requirements
– Be at least 17 years old
– Have achieved the second class medical certificate stating your psycho-physical fitness, issued either by the Aerospace Medical Institute of the Italian Air Force or by a specialist in aviation medicine.
