ASG partners with Florida flight school to provide hour building solutions for our students

10/3/2021

0 Comments

 
In order to meet the requirements to commence Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) training, modular students are required to build up a certain amount of flight experience. This is commonly referred to as "hour building". With weather and fuel prices in Europe, this can prove to be costly and take significantly longer than is necessary.

ASG Managing Director, Diarmuid O'Riordan, comments that:

"In order to assist our ATPL theory students, we have established a partnership with the 
Irish-owned Flight School, Global Flight Training Solutions (GFTS), in Florida (USA) in order to make the hour building process as efficient, fun, easy, and inexpensive as possible
.

While many hour building packages are offered across the US, few are 
Irish owned and designed specifically for visiting European students. Quite often the rates that are quoted involve no training or administrative support and are simply aircraft rates with fuel. This is not practicable for a European student given the nuances of the FAA system and the local regulatory requirements. 

Our new training partners have a track record for delivering the highest standards of training and safety, and we really look forward to building on this relationship. Their team will be able to guide students through the processes and provide local training in order to get you in the air to build your hours as quickly and as safely as possible. ​

Having completed my own hour building there, I can personally testify to the fact that Southwest Florida, which enjoys more than 
300 days of sunshine per year, is the ideal location for building flight experience prior to progressing to Commercial flight training"

​Our partner is based at the 24hr Immokalee Regional Airport which boasts two 5000ft (1500m) runways. Landing fees at our 24hr homebase are included and you will find that many airports in Florida do not charge for visiting aircraft! ​

Hour building aircraft and rates

As an example of the savings possible, for our Cessna 172 aircraft, we can book you a 100hr flight time building package for as little as €11,500 excluding flights/accommodation. In Europe, 100 flight hours would would cost in excess of €20,000 and would take significantly longer to accrue. 

Included in our rates are:

  • A personalized, intensive 4 to 6-week hour building program 
  • Customized training for any experience level 
  • Exclusive access to our C172s, the industry’s finest, safest trainer
  • Up to 10 hours Dual included with an FAA Certificated Flight Instructor
  • Detailed guidance on plane performance, local flying conditions, and rules 
  • No hidden fees or extra charges for full-stop or touch-and-go landings​

Due to currency fluctuations, our hour building rates can change, please e-mail us on info@asg.ie or call us on +35316859021 for your personalised quotation.  ​

OUR STUDENTS


​"From my initial inquiry, to receiving my final exam results 8 months later with first time passes, the ASG team have been a huge support. I've recently been offered my first flying job and I owe a lot of this to the ASG team for the unrivalled instruction and support along the way"

Robert Dunne, ATPL student

"The instructors are highly approachable, enthusiastic and interested in their respective subjects - I believe the knowledge and insights obtained while studying with ASG has not only allowed me to pass the ATPL exams but also equipped me with a depth and breadth of knowledge that I will take with me in my future aviation career.

John Murtagh, ATPL student


"I found the professionalism and also the friendliness of the instructors second to none. I completed the course while maintaining full time employment and this was only possible because of the flexibility offered by ASG"

Eoin Dowling, ATPL student
