Make this winter count

Don't spend another winter waiting to get airborne.

Irish winter weather can make consistent flight training difficult. Pilot Path's Fast-Track PPL gives you another option: step away from the stop-start cycle, immerse yourself in your training and spend five focused weeks flying in Southwest Florida.

Ireland → Florida

Your winter could look very different.

Instead of watching the forecast and waiting for the next flyable day, you could be building hours, developing your skills and moving towards your licence.

It's more than a training course. It's five weeks completely focused on flying — with accommodation, transport and Pilot Path support organised around you.

The Florida experience

Train hard. Enjoy where you're doing it.

Your training is based with Global Flight Training Solutions at Immokalee Regional Airport in Southwest Florida, flying Cessna 172 aircraft.

You train five days out of seven, leaving evenings and time away from the airport to experience Naples, Immokalee and Southwest Florida.

For someone sitting in Ireland looking at another wet winter, this can be an opportunity to turn those same weeks into a genuine aviation milestone.
