Advance AirCadet   

 (14 - 15 Years of age) 

 

European Pilot Academy's Advanced AirCadet Level training program has been recently introduced to bridge the syllabus between the Basic AirCadet and the Private Pilot level to cover in depth the Aircraft Engineering section. The Advance AirCadet Level training program is so designed to cover a clear understanding of the physical principles involved within the aircraft material and structural principals.

 The Advance AirCadet Level is an intelligent solution for those who are interested in pursuing a career in the world of aviation for Professional Pilots since they will learn to be more responsible, and efficient for flight operation, engineering and most of all safety within the Aviation Industry. Within the last 10 years the number of qualified Pilots has increased and also the interest to know more about aviation. The Advance AirCadet will get the opportunity to continue to experience the training required towards becoming a Professional within the Aviation Industry of today
