5 ways to use Sporty's Learn to Fly course

For the cost of a single flight lesson, our Learn to Fly course will save you hours of time in the air and hundreds of dollars. The step-by-step video lessons are better than ground school, helping you prepare for your next flight lesson ahead of time so you spend less time reviewing and more time learning. It also includes complete FAA written test preparation (including the required flight instructor endorsement), a training syllabus, maneuvers guide, and the full Airman Certification Standards cross-referenced to the video segments. This course is so complete, we guarantee you'll pass all three tests required to earn your pilot certificate - written, oral, and checkride - or we'll give you your money back.
