For parents
Your child wants to fly. We help you both decide well.
Pilot training is a big step for a family, and a big cost. We help you find out early whether flying suits your child, compare real schools and real costs, and apply with someone at your side.
Our school advisory is 100% free for students.
- 1,314+ students advised, from the first question to the first day at school
- 20+ partner schools in 8 countries, each with its programmes and fees
- 7 offices across Asia-Pacific and the Middle East
01 The worry
A big step for your child, and a big cost for your family.
Pilot training asks a lot of time and money, so the worry is normal. Our job is to replace it with facts, early, before anyone signs anything.
Is flying right for my child? And can we afford it?
Is flying right for my child?
Find out early whether flying suits them
The aptitude test and Career-Fit show strengths and gaps before your family spends a lot of money. If flying is not right, you found out early, and it cost you nothing.
Can we afford it?
See the real costs before anyone commits
Course fees, living costs and the exchange rate, country by country. And we say openly who pays us.
Who pays, and what it costs02 The money
Clear about who pays, clear about the costs
Our school advisory is free for students, and we say why.
Partner flight schools pay us a fee when a student we helped enrols. Your family never pays us for choosing a school.
Who pays whom
-
Your family Aviation Connect
Nothing for choosing a school.

The budget estimator

The planning desk: flight bag, logbook, chart and the plan
03 The plan
Four steps for a family
Your child's own account, an advisor you can both talk to, and a team that checks the application before it goes to the school.
-
Your child creates a free account
From the age of 16, with their own email. They take the aptitude test, see the schools that fit them and save the ones they like.

Talk to an advisor, together
Your child can ask for a call at any time, from 16 on their own. Would you like to be part of it? Tell us, and the advisor calls at a time that suits you both.
-
Apply with someone at your side
Documents and the application go through the portal, so nothing gets lost. Our team checks everything before it goes to the school, and tells you what the student visa asks for.
04 Their data
Used to help, never sold.
- Used to match your child with schools, and to help when they apply.
- Shared with a school only when your child asks us to.
- The account can be downloaded or deleted at any time.
05 Your questions
What parents ask us
- What does it cost?
- Our school advisory is free for students. The training itself is paid to the school. Every course fee on our site starts with "from", and the budget estimator adds living costs.
- How old does my child have to be?
- An account is possible from 16. Each school's page says what it asks of a student before training starts.
- Can I join the call?
- Yes. Tell us when you ask for the call, and the advisor calls at a time that suits you both.
- What if flying is not right for my child?
- Then you found out early, and it cost you nothing. The aptitude test and an honest conversation come before anyone signs anything.
06 · The day they leave
When they leave for training, you know where they are going.
You will have seen the school, the costs and the plan. Our team checked everything before it went to the school, and you know what the student visa asks for.
