Special Programs

IAU believes that a beginning student’s basic knowledge and skills are critically formed at an early stage in training that would eventually lead to a future pilot who is competent, disciplined and safety-oriented.

The Private Pilot License (PPL) Program is your first step in fulfilling your dream towards becoming a pilot. This is where all the basic lessons regarding the science and art of flying are taught both on the ground and on flight. As per Philippine Civil Air Regulations (PCAR), students are required to pass all ground school subjects and earn a minimum of 45 flight hours to make him eligible to take the Private Pilot Examinations.

If recreational flying on fair weather days is what you want, or to enjoy the freedom of flying with family or friends then this course is for you.
