The Private Pilot Advanced Simulator Camp is an intensive, two-day program designed for advanced students ages 10–17 who are deeply interested in the art and science of flying and preparing to begin formal flight training. This is a great way to prepare for flight training.
This camp is built around professional-grade simulator training and mirrors the structure and discipline of a real private pilot training environment. Unlike traditional aviation camps, this program is intended for serious learners who are ready to engage in focused, detail-oriented instruction using established aviation training methodologies.
Over the course of the weekend (two days, 4 hours per day), participants work directly with Certified Flight Instructors and qualified counselors to develop foundational pilot skills, including aircraft control, instrument interpretation, navigation concepts, cockpit procedures, checklist usage, and aeronautical decision-making. Training is conducted primarily in advanced flight simulators, allowing students to practice realistic flight scenarios in a safe, structured setting.
The camp emphasizes maturity, focus, and professionalism. Students are expected to follow formal procedures, participate in structured briefings and debriefings, and demonstrate attention to detail throughout each simulator session.
This advanced simulator camp is ideal for motivated students who are serious about aviation and ready to take the first disciplined steps toward earning a Private Pilot Certificate. ($325)
