FLIGHT TRAINING
COMMERCIAL LICENSE
LEARN TO FLY
COMMERCIAL LICENSE
A Commercial License is required to be able to fly for compensation and/or hire and is the next step in your flying career.
During Commercial training, we review everything you learned as a private pilot and expand into more advanced skills needed for commercial jobs. Maui’s mountainous terrain, high winds, deep valleys and open oceans offer commercial students the perfect environment to hone their skills for a future in the aviation world.
COMMERCIAL PILOT’S LICENSE
FAA REQUIREMENTS
- Hold a Private Pilot License
- Be at least 18 years old
- Read, write, and speak English
- Hold at least a FAA 3rd class medical certificate (2nd class to fly commercially)
- Pass a written test
- Log 150 hours of flight time which includes
- Receive an endorsement from your instructor certifying that you are prepared to take the practical exam.
- Pass a practical flight test
While building the hours required for the Commercial License, we encourage our students to also work on their Instrument Rating. Earning your Instrument Rating becomes another skill to round out your training as a pilot. It is also becoming more frequently required by employers and at the very least is another tool in your pilot toolbox. The hours required for the Commercial License can be used for instrument training. Since you are flying the hours anyway… why not earn an additional rating and gain an important skill!
