- Thrust Flight is the sole U.S. importer and distributor of Czech Sport Aircraft’s SportCruiser: a modern, well-equipped and economical cross-country Light Sport Aircraft. The SportCruiser is a fun and easy plane to fly, offering glass cockpit technology at a cost far less than traditional aircraft. It has been the top-selling all-metal aircraft in its class for ten years. The SportCruiser’s excellent flight characteristics, superior performance, and panoramic canopy make it a true joy to fly. All of this and direct operating costs of less than $25 per hour make the SportCruiser an exciting aircraft we just love to work with.
Thrust Flight makes it easy and affordable to own your own SportCruiser with flexible financing options and our SportShares Fractional Ownership Program. Why be the owner of another sports coupe in traffic when you can own the “sports coupe of the sky” and soar through vast, open skies? Just call us when you want to fly, and we’ll have your plane gassed up, washed, and waiting for you on the ramp.
Because of our role as importer and distributor, we are able to run a flight school using a fleet of new or nearly new SportCruisers equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and glass cockpit technology with lower costs and rates than typical flight schools with their 40-year-old aircraft plagued by maintenance issues.
Thrust Flight also extends our unique brand of customer service to maintenance and parts support for all SportCruiser and PiperSport owners in the U.S. We maintain an in-house inventory of most parts and can usually deliver the next day. Also at your service are our Thrust Flight technicians who’ll take the time to talk to you and help diagnose problems, identify the correct parts and suggest operational ways to improve performance. Thrust Flight is the authority for maintaining your SportCruiser or PiperSport. We have more experience rebuilding, maintaining, and assembling these aircraft than anyone else in the country! All of our friendly maintenance personnel are factory trained to maintain your aircraft to the highest level.
But we’re anything but one-dimensional! We also have more traditional aircraft like the Cessna 172 (G1000), Cessna 310 light twin, American Champion Xtreme Decathlon, and Bellanca Super Viking available for advanced ratings. We service a variety of aircraft, not just SportCruisers. Our techs are true GA guys with lots of experience.

Nearly all the instructor pilots I know recommend concentrated courses like this as the cheapest and best ways to learn. Students retain much more when it is hammered into them non stop
As someone who's just started my private license (10 hours in) I just wanna share my experience for anyone else who might be looking to get started. The learning curve for flying is steep as is, and for every 2 hour lesson (1 hour of flight) I probably study 3 to 5 hours a day as well to really grasp the concepts I'm executing. To people saying they can't afford to invest the time, I'd come back at them saying is flying something you can really afford to rush? Anyway, maybe this has worked for some people, but I'd be apprehensive myself!
Yes, I agree. I do not want to crash course my flight training. Ground and in the plane. It takes time for all of this to sink in and stick. I want to be a safe pilot.
The end of this video is beyond greatness! hahaha
Although a two week accelerated course seems a bit extreme this video was pretty entertaining.
I can remember having mental fatigue after just a 90 minute lesson. I wonder how much the student pilot would remember after a 8 hour lesson.
Exactly. The only people who should be taking accelerated courses are the ones who already know their shit, but just don't have certifications saying that they know it. I feel sorry for the wannabe pilots who don't have a clue about what's involved in flying.
Think about just a drivers license. Do you think you could have been taught both the written exam, and how to drive a vehicle that you've never operated even once before, both in the same 2 week period in 8 hour days of 5 hours of driving and 3 hours of instruction? Of course not.
Flying is a lot more complicated. You don't need to radio someone that you're leaving your driveway and what path you're taking to work today and whether or not you're going for an egg mcmuffin this morning. There's no aerodynamic stall, no tow truck in the sky, when your engine dies you can't just pull over to the side of the road, there are clearly marked lanes, you don't have to land, etc etc etc.
Just imagine if you had to drift your car (fishtail) to park into a parking stall every time, that's what landing is like. Even new pilots with a year or two of experience can forget how to land and go through months of having to relearn the instincts.
Don't get me wrong, I could probably teach you how to be a half decent driver in that time, but if you didn't know the laws you're not going to absorb them long term in those 2 weeks while driving 5 hours a day and sitting through 3 more of instruction. You're also not going to get a lot of time to 'brew' this information in your mind and connect it to experience.
Thinking about accelerated 'training' programs like this makes me scared to be near small airports, lol =)
@@CreQ You would take more than 2 weeks to learn how to drive a car? That is sick.
It's just a regular school day in India!
CreQ hey man im immigrant I don’t know how things work on usa but i want to become i pilot 👩🏻✈️ how do i do it?
Appreciate Video clip! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Rozardner Flying Bird Reality (do a google search)? It is an awesome exclusive product for how to get pilot license without the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my close friend Aubrey at very last got amazing success with it.
Also if you don't mind,
1. Can you make a video of where to take the FAA Written Test?
2.Where can I get my Student Pilot Certificate? Is it after the FAA Written Test?
3.For the FAA Medical, can it be any clinic? For drivers license, can it be a license outside of Texas, like Colorado? Or is this program only offered to Texans?
The Passport I have.
4. I noticed in one of the comments you mentioned the price being $9,500. Does this include the plane rental, the 1 on 1 instructor on air flight, and the class?
I just feel like your program is really good and fun.
Hi TheWiseMan! Thanks for your questions.
We'll certainly add that to the video to-do list! In the meantime, you can take your written test at any approved FAA testing center. The two companies that support FAA pilot testing are C.A.T.S. and Lasergrade. A visit to either website will lead you to a directory of testing center locations.
Student pilot certificates must be gotten through I.A.C.R.A. This is the FAA's new website for processing pilot licensing. You must apply through the I.A.C.R.A website for a student pilot certificate, then have a local flight instructor log into the same site using his login information, find your application, and approve it. You can get your student pilot certificate at any time; you don't need it before taking the written test but you will need it before you solo.
For the medical it's not just any clinic. You must go through the FAA's medical website to find a DME (or Designated Medical Examiner). Call their office and they will give you instructions on preparing to take the medical.
The $9500 includes everything! Many accelerated students finish at or below the $9500 while some go over budget a little but this is a fairly accurate price.
Hopefully that answers your questions! For more information or any additional questions please feel free to call Nathan at 972-735-9099 ext. 5 or email him at Nathan@ussportaircraft.com!
Thank you so much for your response.
Personally, I don't believe it is possible to create a competent private pilot in just 14 days. Sure they could pass a checkride but they definitely will lack experience.
I agree it seems kinda sketchy, I'd rather take my time and actually learn something not just memorize it.
I agree however im sure 2 weeks of non stop focused flight probably does its job.
That actually applies to all new private pilots - when I got my sport pilot license here in Germany 10 years ago I knew everything about the regulations and how everything is in theory - that did not prevent me of getting into some situations I would rather not have gone through like flying into a cloud for 2 seconds...you just do not have the experience and no training can give you that, only when you fly regularly and often AFTER you get your license. Of course when you have enough funds you can train for 6 months and spend 100 hrs. training time...
you should go through a military flight training. Up quick in small training planes.
Kudos for the video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you thought about - Rozardner Flying Bird Reality (search on google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for how to get pilot license without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cooworker at last got cool success with it.
God that's just so scary. I mean kudos if you can do it but there's still a lot to gain from simply experience alone, something you'd be severely lacking with only 14 days of training.
I mean if you think about it... just because someone takes 6 months to learn how to fly doesn’t mean they have more experience. It’s the same amount of instruction time either way. One just takes longer. Plus if you do it often and a lot you’ll probably be better at flying rather than flying once it twice a week.
@@josephburton92 it’s funny you replied to this just now. I’m getting my commercial rating in two weeks start to finish. Pretty intense.
@@AirKaos congrats bro! Hopefully I’m right behind you ! I haven’t started yet just a few discovery flights. I have to wait to go back to the United States. Which flight school did you end up going with?
@@josephburton92 thank you! I’m at ATP in the Jacksonville location. Private and instrument were pretty slow paced, but once you hit commercial it gets really quick. I’m sure whatever flight school you choose it’ll be fine. ATP just created a work/school program if you want a slower paced program.
It's guys like you that release these weekend warriors that don't know an aileron from a rudder!
A lot of people have wrong idea and think it's easy because someone did it.
this programs is for dedicated self learners.
At first, they think its easy and when they try it out it gets hard.
This IS doable... Especially sport pilot. But here's the thing. YOU have to be ready to work. It took me WAAAAAYYY longer to get mine... But I know EXACTLY why. I made every mistake in the book, invented a few as well. I've got over 50 hours in the SportCruiser. GREAT airplane. I actually manned a sales booth for them in the San Diego area for a buddy of mine. Read on for tips...
You need three things to make this a reality, in my opinion.
First, you need to be prepared. Everything they mention in the video. I'd also suggest studying a copy of the Airman Certification Standards (ACS), as well as the sport/private oral exam guide. Read the questions, write down the answers in a notebook. Have someone ask you a question, and practice answering it. The more you learn beforehand, the better.
Second... You need good weather. That's luck to an extent, but seasonal as well...
Third. INSTRUCTORS MATTER. Also YOU NEED A GOOD INSTRUCTOR! Having a good instructor is key as well. Yes, I know I said this three times. Hopefully, they have one that can dedicate the two weeks to you.
One more bonus tip... Fly online in X-Plane 11. There is a SportCruiser you can download that isn't bad, but it's not the stick and rudder skills you're looking for. Log in to PilotEdge and do their CAT training program before you go. It stands for Communication/Airspace Training. It will teach you all the radio work, airspace requirements, etc... And give you a leg up. You just need a joystick and an okay gaming PC. They also have IFR ratings... It's pretty damned cool.
Good luck all!
Ron
Don't you think that learning to fly is one of the areas where you shouldn't round the corners off?
Of course.
@@ThrustFlight , Glad to hear it. For a while there, I thought you were going to offer a course that awards a flying license after two weeks of training.
I have been flown around 90 hrs in two while having full time job 9hrs I was only able to make this due to pandemic and work from home set up I tell this was really exhausted and I don’t recommend even for myself to do it again. Take it slowly but surely ✈️✈️
To all aviation fanatics, like to give you short scenario of mine and ask your honest and experienced opinions.
I am 50 years old, and due to lack of timing, job, etc. I starred the training urge very late in early 2014. I am from upstate NY, NYC to be exact which you can imagine, closes airfield is 1 hour drive and weather, and restriction on the air fields, my location is not suitable for training. I had my due delegacy research and went down Miami to see the existing training schools in 2015 spring. Needles to say, in 2015 they were charging $160 + 60 for instructor and some of them they even charging with fuel & insurance on top of that. They were the wolf of the aviation, waiting to hunt , from your pocket. I didn't feel comfortable with the schools, I reviewed almost 5 of them. Most desirable one was ATP which they were not allowing part 61 or private pilot training. In that visit to Miami, I passed the 3rd degree medical and got certificate in the time being.
Following fall I had 3 heart stance implant which directly pushed back everything on the schedule.
But I didn't stop ground study thru sporty and internet sources, I signed up to Aviation seminars weekend ground training school in MD. After the weekend training I took the exam and failed with 68. Until that time I had no flight time. Following spring I made another trip but this time I concentrated on Orlando and vicinity. Prices were anywhere between $150 with no glass cockpit to $185 with GS1000 instructor rates was from $50 to $85 the most. Major airline focused schools was located at Daytona area, I also visited them one by one.
I have to admit, as you indicate in your post, they had great adds, mind blowing promising but once you showed up , most of them was totally messed up. I visited Aorism, which out of all the flight schools in the area they have the most fleet with offering only part 141. Next in the list I found out great deal of professionalism was Epic Flight academy which also focused on part 141. Next one on the list was Flight Training professionals which wasn't offering accelerated program, but They got high marks at AOPA school list 2 years in row. Most interesting flight school that I came across was Sun State Aviation. Great building, nice equipment, ands new fleet but milking your pocket attitude.
With their rate $228 -with GS1000 cockpit + $79 CFI, they were the most expensive school in that entire Orlando area. That wasn't just the price, they were also forcing the training for you to stay in extended hours for their students which I found out after I had conversation with their 3 active student. Next stop was Tailwheels Etc. flight school which the only one which eagerly offering accelerated training in the area. I contacted with them couldn't even get definite answer to visit their facility neither they had enough plane for the training also their CFI's was on part time bases. After spending thousands $ and time, search was discouraging. I gave one more changes and targeted AOPA listings on 2014 and 2015 of best schools. I found another candidate at
Ft Myers, Paragon flight school. They were the only one, didn't ask me upfront payment nor student pre-paid account. Back then they had $150 for the plane & $50 for the instructor. Young crew, and had several AOPA honor list instructors. The conclusion was the final approach for me to review the school. Their down sides, their CFI are very young and they were eagerly jumping to the airline by building hours at the schools. After these search and reviews I went back to NY and signed up accelerated weekend class at American Flyers weekend schools in NJ. Class was great and informative, but you have to study on the side though cannot rely on only their study. They are using experienced and old time pilots that have thousands of hour's experience. My unfortunate path stopped with FAA rejection on my cardiologic test. Then they required more test results such as additional stress test, full medical history etc. The they gave me 3 months to complete.
After a year and half I had to stopped by FAA this time. I waited but couldn't take the test, due to unknown future on my flight path. I hope I could get repeat class from them, which I am was told could it be done.
I recently passed the medical test which I have valid certificate until 2018 thank god.
What happened in the mean time; I reviewed and felt the one thing :
without dedicating least a month or so there will be no pilot certificate. Couple hours of flying every here and there, won't give me any boost.
I decided to delicate my time and $ to take off from my work and life on up state and move to Florida sun shine state for training. Needles to say, I focused on Paragon flight school and visited them recently. The only change and down side that I noticed was the CFI crew got much younger with less flight hours. This detail made me worry, because young guys mostly focusing on their carrier path more than teaching ability. In the same token, many maneuver or case study is taking place while you and your CFI is on the control rather than playing the scenario with his/ her experience and learning the outcome in details. Learning as you fly , should be your target not your CFI's. The other issue was, I haven't got clear $ estimation nor average time and cost for the solo and the completion of the training from the previous pilots that they got their certificates from the school.
But schools have good feedback and reputation and have well maintained fleet. I believe will be good fit.
After all this short story of mine, would like to know if anyone out here read this has experience with the school , any suggestion or recommendation on CFI whom they had training previously. Anyone had solo with the school, how many hours it took for them, my main focus and aim is least 2 hours of flight time a day min.
Of course depends on the weather. Also any recommendation for the area, airports , cross country flights, in that regards perhaps any lead that you might experienced on your flight training that you may direct/ suggest to newly starters as myself... Thank you ...
Holy text wall, Fatman
Great Video clip! Forgive me for chiming in, I would love your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Rozardner Flying Bird Reality (do a google search)? It is a great exclusive product for how to get pilot license minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my m8 at very last got astronomical success with it.
That was pretty short
Would love to get an update from this. I'm a 22 year old from NYC trying to start my journey in aviation and would love some incite or anything into schools near the city
You guys rock! Hopefully I'll see you soon.
YOU rock, Ivan! We can't wait to see you! Feel free to give us a call at any time at 972-735-9099 or visit ussportaircraft.com for more info
US Sport Aircraft please can you tell me if you like Boeing or air bus
how many people fail the pilots test in the 14 days?
I want to do this so badly!!
Oh I'm definitely going to this flight school to get my commercial license...right now I'm working on getting my bachelors since most major airlines prefer it
Remember to get "Renter's insurance"
A lot of flight schools will ask for one.
Good on you and your company. You just ignore some negative peopled always trying to find fault with everything. ww2 German pilots went into combat with 110 hours training and some Russian ace pilots only 80 hours and fighter pilots have far more to contend with than an sport pilot. I personally think the normal training is too long and boring. this is the way my children will be going
This may be true, but it certainly wasnt 110 hours of training in only two weeks. Personally, I've met several pilots who've gotten their private through an accelerated program like this, and they're rarely as sharp as they should be. Its just too much information for one person to actually process and absorb to the point where they can retain it in that short of a time period.
Its always remarkable how someone can, not only contrive a false equivalent argument, but actually believe it. Fact number 1: The rate loss of German WW2 pilots was ~16.5% average (Peaks and valley's depending on the year and field of operation). So if the factual statistic is applied to your argument, you would be ok with an 17% annual loss of life as long as the learning curve is short.
You would think a more intelligent reply would be more in line with: 14 days of non-stop training isn't for everyone taste, but glad to see that option is available if I choose to.
@@fredpinczuk7352 does your % decrease is they aren’t being fired upon?
I don't know what people are commenting about getting less experience if you do It in two weeks, if it takes you six, two months or two weeks, what you are leaning is the same thing. what experience a newbie is going to have if it is going to take him six months to get the pilot license instead of two weeks.
The real issue I have is with the two weeks training is cramming all that knowledge in two weeks, I rather take a little longer 6 to 4 weeks in order to soak up and review all that knowledge.
How about accelerated IFR training? The same concept for IFR sounds really good to me. Would jump on that right away.
Yes, we can do accelerated IFR training! Training every day, around 4-5 hours per day, we can get you your instrument rating in two weeks (weather permitting)!
Here at US Sport Aircraft we can get you your instrument rating for much less than at other flight schools because you can fly up to 25 hours of the required 40 hours of dual instrument instruction in the SportCruiser at just $185 per hour (including instructor). The remaining 15 hours of dual instrument instruction can be accomplished in our Cessna 172 G1000 at $219 per hour (including instructor). If you want to do all 40 dual hours in the 172 you can do that as well!
You can expect to pay around $9,500-$10,500 for our program - and that's with 25 hours of ground instruction built in. If you don't need 25 hours of ground instruction, that price tag will drop even more!
Give us a call at 972-735-9099 or email us at getstarted@ussportaircraft.com to get started! Thanks!
On dexamphetamine for ADD diagnosed 2 years ago
Currently Paramedic can I pass the medical
What are the rules for stimulants ..also I have not tried the non stimulant..if required I would change to them see how it goes ?? 14 days is crazy but I think it would suit many people
basically everyone I have talked to said it is absolutely impossible. This is coming from pilots that dont run schools as well. So I do this and get my PPL by the hair of my chin. Will my foundation be crumbly or solid?
Hi David! It's certainly possible, otherwise we wouldn't offer the program! It's an intense two weeks filled with lots of flying and instruction, and while most students in the program chose it because their normal schedule would have never allowed enough regular flying to get their PPL, there are those who simply prefer it to standard training because of how fresh each lesson is in their minds every day. Ensuring a solid foundation is precisely why we don't (and won't) guarantee that students will finish in exactly two weeks - we will never send a student into a checkride with a "crumbly" foundation. If you like the idea of accelerating training but think you'd want to spread out the training a little, our programs are fully customizable! We can plan a schedule for a three- or four-week accelerated course if that better suits your schedule or learning style. If you're still skeptical, give Nathan a call at 972-735-9099 and he'll be happy to speak with you about the program! Thanks for watching!
I've seen a small percentage of students complete the training program within a month or 5 weeks in my CFII days (most took months). But two weeks sounds very, very sketchy. This would require flying several hours a day, which is just plain not productive. There is only so much one can absorb in a day. After too instruction in one day, the student just stops learning and becomes a passenger really.
Nathan should be nominated for best actor
amazing stuff and great video ! but what about A320 air bus licenses ?
Where are you located and how much money to bring for just the school portion. Thanks
How about tuition fee amount?
In Europe, this is not possible, because PPL students are limited to 2,5 hours of flying if I remember correctly
Might depend on the country. I know there was a case where a student pilot did 5+ hours of flight training on a single day (part of it with instructor and part solo) here in Finland and crashed on the final landing. Fatigue was cited as one factor in the accident investigation but lack of any prior experience flying solo and doing a demanding long solo flight at the end of the day was probably the main issue. It's possible the rules could have changed after that but it was relatively recent.
@@sluxi I was definitely wrong here, there is a limit, but certainly more than 2,5 hours 😂
I wish you guys still did this for PPL.
My problem is more the money than time. Granted, I'm not sure it's possible to get done in 14 days - unless I don't have a job.
Is a FAA Part 107 Certificate the one you guys are looking for?
funny you dont need a drivers license for your license/certification.. but you state you require it.. thats bogus. your requiring more then the FAA
As long as you can get 2 weeks of good weather.
Hi AdrianDotis! That's very true - we always tell prospective accelerated students that while weather in the Dallas area is usually more consistently flying-friendly than many other parts of the country, there is always a chance that some bad weather could cause delays. Thanks for watching!
I only have 2 flight hours after a month. After each flight Im already exhausted. This sounds crazy stressful on the brain and body haha
UPDATE: I got used to it.
This video is just funny. Well done! Too bad you're not in NorCal.
Why do you need the FAA written test done first? Isn't that what this course teaches you?
Hi Pirana6! We recommend having the written test done before you start our Accelerated course so that you only need to focus on flying and receiving your certificate within the 2-3 week timeline. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Cool! You could could improve your business model by purchasing a home, a little remodel to fit a handful of students, and then charge the students rent. So you can earn an income on training, and housing (maybe even offer a "discount"). I'm for hire sir.
How impossible is that true 2 weeks will get pilot license??
Is this still available?
Is this program still available in 2021?
I live in canada (permanent resident)
I can come to US for the training.
Best Commercial
Sir , i wanna do this, how can I do please b tell me the procedure
This is stupid, cause it’s not guaranteed that every student will be able to complete in that amount of time. You also didn’t specify that you still need an instructor to apply for your student certificate. So how would someone brand new bring you a student pilot certificate
So in order to get the commercial pilots license it's going to end up costing me between $40-$60,000?
I'm interested in getting my PPL but I was wondering if anyone has ever gone through this program. I'm interested in their feedback: pre, post, and several months down the line.
Hi Jbournegb4! If you email Nathan at nathan@ussportaircraft.com he'll be more than happy to put you in touch with people who have gone through the program!
Hi: please I want Know how much 3 License PPL & CPL & IR

How much does it cost? Is there financial aid to assist with expense?
what happens if you crash?..Is that a definite fail?.
LOL Reminds me of a cartoon in _"FLYING"_ magazine with a lady student and her checkride examiner, both going down in their parachutes. The caption was something like, "...So this means I didn't pass"?
LoL. I assume it wouldn't be too different from driver ed. If you crash, the plane would be covered by insurance. But the instructor may, or may not, want to fly with you again.
So what are the pros/cons of the accelerated training vs. normally paced training? ( I know some of them seem self explanatory but humor me?)
How much will this class cost? Would be great if you could reply
Hi Jørgen! This class as a package costs $9500, but if a student has additional needs or goals we will work with them to build a customized program. There are also other flexible options including the option to pay as you go. Visit USSportFlightAcademy.com for more info! Thanks for watching!
What is the minimum age
Is this for a Private pilots license? Where are you guys located??
Hi TheWiseMan! This is for either private pilot license or sport pilot license, and we have accelerated options available for additional ratings as well! We are located in Addison, TX. Check us out at ussportaircraft.com or give us a call at 972-735-9099!

Your Sport Pilot Certificate is the same no matter where you earn it! The FAA is a national authority and its certifications are recognized everywhere in the US.
US Sport Aircraft THANKS
A realistic PPL (or SPL) course consists of 6-9 months, incl. the full theory part, radio exam, rainy days and everything that will go wrong on the way. The people promising to cram this down to 4 weeks are already unreputable. Does anyone really believe a 2-weeks-course is a way to go? It might sound great for a rookie who is hungry for flying but everyone with a license in his pocket knows what to think of schools like this. The only way I could somehow imagine is when you have a pilots license already and you want to transition to SEP/SPL. Sorry to burst the bubble but if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The waiting period for an examiner/checkride is often a full week on its own.
Hi Elija Matt! Though many people are skeptical of receiving your certificate in 2 weeks, it can be done and we have many students who succeed. Our Accelerated Course is built upon the understanding that it will be a full-time commitment in both flying and studying at home. While it's true that the waiting period for an examiner can be long and drawn out, our students can usually be scheduled 2-3 days from sign off as we have a DPE on staff and a great relationship with our local FSDO. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
I'd like to cut this down to a week. Fly round the clock, no sleep. Check ride on day 7
How many flight hours do you need before your allowed to advance to jet engines.
Hi Johnny HighRoller! That depends on how long your initial training will take. If you contact our Flight Training Director, Nathan, at nathan@ussportaircraft.com. He would be more than happy to answer your questions! Thanks for watching!
Do you have the same type of accelerated program for the IFR rating??

Wait you have to have a drivers licance?
Hi kevindt12! We ask for a copy of students' driver's licenses because the TSA requires us to receive two forms of government ID, and one of them has to be a passport or birth certificate. If you don't have a driver's license but you are interested in flight training with us, you'll just need to present an alternate form of government ID. Call 972-735-9099 for more information! Thanks for watching!
I wonder exactly how much one can absorbed in an accelerated program without mental fatigue and be competent, is this just the LSA or for private license?
Hi Mike! it's not for everyone, but we have many students complete our accelerated courses and get their certificates much sooner than they thought they could! Many others may need 2.5 or 3 weeks to finish up training - everyone learns differently and at his or her own pace. We offer accelerated programs for Sport, Private, and Instrument! Thanks for watching!
What's the cost?
Why do you need a driving licence?
I thought it was a pilot certificate in the U.S.?
Hi JLNYardBird! You're absolutely correct. We refer to the certificate as a “license” despite the fact that the correct term is “certificate.” This is because the average non-pilot might refer to getting their “pilot license” much like their “driver’s license.” It makes it a little easier to understand and maybe even a little bit less intimidating. Thanks for watching!
how much does this cost ?
How do you get in the required hours that fast?
Yeah uh how much is this program?
I have an Australian RAAus pilots certificate which is a sports licence for 600kg aircraft and only 1 passenger, how do I go about getting an sport license in the USA?
As Australia is an ICAO member state, you can find information on applying for a U.S. pilot certificate or rating based on a foreign pilot license at this link: www.aopa.org/training-and-safety/pic-archive/flight-training-ratings-and-proficiency/foreign-pilot-certification
Please can you tell me what is the cost and what about the payments and thank you ...
Ahmad, our private pilot program is $9500. You are welcome to pay as you train but if you purchase the package up front you save about $1200 off flight training. Thanks for watching!
US Sport Aircraft okay thank you
you funny and yes I'm looking for a private license
Oh buddy I have all the time in the world. In fact I’d be more than glad to take it for months. What I need is más dinero...
I called and all I got was voice mail.
Hello, please forgive at writing. Will course instruct at identifying targets...I mean landmarks with emphasis on determining which have significant military value and/or emotional impact? Also, I hope not waste time on how to land. Only capitalists land planes.
Do you have to have proof of drivers license, like what if you didn’t drive or something
Hi Flugsen! You do no need to have a driver's license so long as you have another form of government issued ID. Thanks for watching!
Question...I am retired Air Force...will my Military ID work?
Hi Joe Martin! Yes, as long as it is an unexpired, government issued ID it will work. Thanks for watching!
Is it possible to get PPL without driver license?
Hi Mübin Icyer! Absolutely! We ask for a copy of students' driver's licenses because the TSA requires us to receive two forms of government ID, and one of them has to be a passport or birth certificate. If you don't have a driver's license but you are interested in flight training with us, you'll just need to present an alternate form of government ID. Call 972-735-9099 for more information! Thanks for watching!
how to get this 5 thing
What is the minimum height required for private pilot
Hi RIZ TRAILS! There is no minimum height required to become a private pilot. There are booster seats and extra seat cushions available that help even the most diminutive pilots see clearly while allowing them total access to the aircraft controls. Depending on the particular aircraft you want to train/fly in, ask your flight school about options available to you! Thanks for watching!
cant hear anything u said
YES FINALLY AN FLIGHT SCHOOL NEAR ME
WE'RE EXCITED TOO! GIVE US A CALL WHEN YOU WANT TO GET STARTED! 972-735-9099!
@@ThrustFlight Howdy. I was talking to my girlfriend and I asked her "if I could do anything for you, what would it be?" And she jokingly said "build an airplane to sit 5 people" and we laughed but then I thought about it seriously. I have electrical and welding knowledge from the community college I'm about to graduate from, so I thought "you know, the mechanics of this couldn't be too complicated". The problem, I then thought, is that, even if I could make an aircraft, I wouldn't be able to fly it because the frickin FAA would be all over me. Could you tell me the quickest and cheapest way to get a license for this theoretic plane and how much it would cost. Thankyou

Do I have to have training to get a Student Pilot Certificate?
Hi Destroy Everything! You will need to be enrolled in training to apply for a Student Pilot Certificate as a CFI will need to sign off your application. Thanks for watching!
Cheers for the Video! Sorry for chiming in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard about - Proutklarton Key Fuel Plan (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing one off product for discovering a hidden Airline Loophole to get cheap fights minus the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate got cool success with it.
do i have to be in america to get these lessons?
Hi Kyle McLuckie! You would have to be in America to flight train with us but many countries offer their own flight schools/programs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
What if i don't have a drivers licence?
Hi NorGamers - Norsk underholding! We ask for a copy of students' driver's licenses because the TSA requires us to receive two forms of government ID, and one of them has to be a passport or birth certificate. If you don't have a driver's license but you are interested in flight training with us, you'll just need to present an alternate form of government ID. Call 972-735-9099 for more information! Thanks for watching!
I have a divers permit bc I'm 16. So can I join?
Absolutely - as long as the permit has your photo on it (it must be a government issued photo ID)! If your permit isn't a photo ID but you are interested in flight training with us, you'll just need to present an alternate form of government photo ID.
At 16 years old, you can train and even fly solo as a student, but you can't get your pilot certificate until you turn 17. Therefore we wouldn't recommend accelerated training if your 17th birthday is more than two or three weeks away, but give us a call and we can customize a unique schedule to get you ready to take your pilot checkride by your 17th birthday! Call 972-735-9099 for more information! Thanks for watching!
US Sport Aircraft Well looks like I can start now but wait till next year. Thanks for the info!
i m not us residnt what i m doing ?
As a flight school, do you guys think that the simulator program X-plane is beneficial to the training of a pilot?
I am about to begin flight training again here in Australia and am considering investing in a saitek pro simulator and using Vatsim to help me with procedures etc. However, the $7,000 I would use for it could go towards lessons.
Also, how would someone go about becoming a learjet pilot?
Cheers :D
Great video too!
Hi Kain McKenzie! We would recommend that you put that money towards flight training lessons and becoming a pilot. Simulators can be invaluable tools, but if you want to become a Learjet pilot the first step to getting there is flight training to become a pilot. Once you're a commercial pilot, you will then need to get a specific type rating for the airplane you want to fly. Thanks for watching!
THE PRIVATE PILOT SIMULATORS SUCK IN MY OPINION, IT WAS HARDER THAN ACTUALLY FLYING, AND U DONT GET THE FLIGHT PHYSIOLOGY ASSOCIATED WITH ACTUALLY FLYING. You dont have feelers or force feedback, you cant really gauge what the planes doing or feel the sensation of speed
Getting a flight simulator for your private pilot is not worth your time or money.
But a flight simulator for your Instrument training is worth it. You will save a lot of flight hours.
Hey, I am a Zambian young serviceman with a deep desire to fly, is it possible that I can be given a full breakdown of the fees and schedules for flying training? I really want to do it most likely towards the end of the year; bearing in mind that I dont have a lot of time to myself, I'd appreciate if your breakdown will include the compressed-most program.
Please respond the soonest. I thank you in advance.
Hi Elijah! You can find all the information regarding our flight programs here: www.flighttraining.thrustflight.com . Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
I appreciate your prompt response, I'll check it right away and give feedback.
How much it costs the whole ppl training?
Hi funny videos 4 all! You can find out more information about all of our flight training programs at www.thrustflight.com or you can email our Flight Director, Nathan, at nathn@thrustflight.com. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
How long does it take to get a pilot license from zero
Hi Raw Power! It can take as little as 2-3 weeks to get your PPL if you are flying our accelerated program (2x a day, 7 days a week), the weather is good to fly, and you're studying at home!
Pilot's license? What for?
I have a question about your accelerated program. Is this done in the sport cruiser or can it be completed in Cessna 172? I ask because I saw on your web-site that you have both type of aircraft. Also will the cost be the same to complete the flight training in either Sport cruiser or Cessna 172? Thanks Felix
Felix, thank you so much for the questions! Our accelerated program can be accomplished in either aircraft, however, our published prices are built around the SportCruiser. It's your choice really! The SportCruiser is the aircraft of choice for a private or accelerated program because of it's cost effectiveness. It's really not necessary to train for either in a 4 seater aircraft (C-172) unless of course you just are partial to that aircraft. The SportCruiser aircraft is $40 less per hour to operate than the $172, but again, its really up to you which airplane you would like to train in. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I will include my email on this response. Nathan@ussportaircraft.com. Talk with you soon!
May i get license here im indian
We cannot accomodate non-US citizens at the moment unfortunately. But I mean if you are a US Citizen we will take you. We don't like, turn you away just because you're Indian. That would be insane.
Without giving exam can we become a pilot
Can I get the big brother military discount?
Since your brother is the star of the video, I will consider it! -Nathan
funny~
While this seems like a great idea on paper, the caliber of pilot churned out at the end of this is questionable. Coming to you guys they really only have to pass the oral and written tests and then cert, that being said crammed learning for this industry I would suggest is unsafe and not realistic. Enjoyed the video though, it’s a good edit.
what are the educational requirements for a pakistani national? and what is the total fee for ppl? after getting my high school certificate 10+2 can I apply? please reply me as soon as possible
Hi Sameer! The FAA requires you to either be a US citizen with a valid passport or go through the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) AlienFlight Student Program to begin flight training. You can do so at www.flightschoolcandidates.gov/
Because no two student pilots are alike, what you pay to get your pilot's license will vary from student to student. US $9,500 will cover 40 hours of flight time, but some student pilots will need more time and some will need less (if going for their sport pilot license). You should expect to pay between US $8,500-$10,500 for you accelerated training at US Sport Aircraft. Thanks for your comment!
How can i write my faa exams before all this?
Hi Felix! In order to become a pilot, you’ll need to pass both the FAA written test and the FAA practical test (or "checkride").
You can study for the written test on your own, get ground instruction at a flight school, or pay for an online ground school - it's up to you and your budget. Our typical accelerated course asks students to have already completed their written test because it is a standard knowledge test that you can pass by studying on your own without a single hour of flight time. It also helps ensure that accelerated students can begin the course with at least a basic understanding of the concepts and knowledge required to become a pilot, greatly increasing the efficiency of the program. If students were to attempt to get their pilot certificate in two weeks without passing their written exam first, it would make it very difficult and would probably not finish in time. Of course, if you already live in the Dallas, TX, area, you are welcome to take your ground school at US Sport Flight Academy before you begin the accelerated program!

is this doable for Dutch (European) people as well?
Zoey, absolutely! We love our European friends! You will need to start at Flightschoolcandidates.gov to begin the TSA approval process. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Cool. Does the sports pilot license look like "LAPL"? That is the one here I guess. (LAPL being Light Aircraft Pilot Licence).
Hi Zoey! Different countries and different parts of the world have different definitions and regulations of light aircraft. In June 2011, the European Aviation Safety Agency published CS-LSA Certification Specifications for Light Sport Aeroplanes. This introduced a new category of manufactured sport aeroplanes similar to the light-sport category found in the USA and elsewhere. Light aircraft pilot licence (LAPL) is a pilot license allowing the pilot to fly small aircraft in Europe.
So, correct me if i got it wrong, this licence would be usable as European in Europe?
Hi Nathan Im a high school graduate only Im asking if Im qualify for having a pilot license
Hi Yorusiko ed SuSej! You can start working towards your pilot's license as early as 14, however, you must be at least 16 to solo. You also do not need a college degree in order to obtain your license. Thanks for watching!
