Florida Flight Center (FFC) is a well-established flight training facility that has provided exceptional pilot training for over 25 years. Our instructors are professional pilots with thousands of hours of flight and teaching experience, ensuring the highest standards of safety and proficiency.
FFC specializes in in-aircraft training, a method many pilots find offers a higher level of safety and practical experience. This approach is particularly beneficial when training in aircraft with significant avionics modifications often seen in the used market, such as the Citation 501 with dual GTN 750s.
To enhance the learning experience, FFC incorporates supplemental tools including:
This combination ensures pilots gain both theoretical and practical mastery.
Our syllabus includes 16–24 hours of comprehensive ground school prior to flight training. Zoom instructor-led options are available for home study prep, allowing students to build a foundation before their start date.
Through chapter quizzes and instructor feedback, students ensure mastery before advancing to flight training.
Flight training begins with simulators or specific training devices for avionics familiarization, including Garmin, Universal, Avidyne, Collins, and Honeywell systems. Pilots then transition to in-aircraft cockpit procedures training, learning flows and checklist management.
Before each flight, instructors review the maneuvers, common mistakes, and expectations for success.
Maneuvers safely performed in aircraft include:
Each session concludes with a review of strengths and opportunities for improvement.
*All training is conducted one-on-one and tailored to the pilot’s experience level.
During all checkrides, the examiner follows FAA Form 8410. All maneuvers can be performed safely in the aircraft, ensuring compliance with FAA standards and insurance requirements.
