Flying an aircraft requires a measurable level of skill. Each individual starts their flight training with different levels of knowledge, skills and habits. There- fore it is difficult to estimate how long it will take each person to complete their train- ing. However our experience has shown individuals successfully passing their check ride with as little as 50 hours and some with as much as 100 hours. Your training with Spencer Aviation will be based on YOUR safety, YOUR needs(to reach required levels of skill) and helping you reach YOUR goals as a pilot. Flying should be fun and mentally stimulating. Your progress will best be made with this attitude. We look forward to helping you start Your New Adventure!!!
