Affordable, Fast, Effective:
*Accelerated Flight Training using DCT Aviation unique Integrated Flight Training Programs are truly the most cost and time efficient way to learn to fly due to the fact that with accelerated pilot training your learning curve is maximized and you are totally immersed into the subject matter for the duration of your accelerated private pilot training course, away from the normal distractions of work, business and life in general. It is proven that that closer training lessons are in scheduled presentation the greater the retention per lesson. In other words, less reinforcement is necessary per scheduled lesson.*

By using the DCT Aviation Integrated Flight Simulation System, your total time to learn to fly and completion of the Private Pilot training course will be significantly less than the industry average though. This is accomplished by using the most advanced interactive instructional techniques which involves more of the senses into the learning process, thus maximizing the retention of information.

Testimonials

"Sitting in the cockpit next to Ilya I realized immediately his love for flying and his passion for teaching it. With his individual approach towards me as a pilot and my preferences in learning he developed the most beneficial and effective training to reach my goals. Together, DCT Aviation's staff permanently mentored my progress and cared for my well being in every phase of this condensed training. Despite DCT's professional attitude and environment (aircraft, class room, simulator, pilots lounge) I felt like part of the family!"
