No, not at all. We offer Flight Training courses from ZERO "0" TIME where we teach student pilots the HANDS-ON very basics in flight through to the advanced principles of controlling an aircraft. Eagle Vistas Flight School is all about our students learning flight principles the right way so an inexperienced novice student pilot ACTUALLY has a chance to discover their learning principles here to become a safe, skilled, proficient Pilot like an AG Pilot.
Yes. Our facility is located in a warm climate so we schedule our pilot training around many a student's planting and growing seasons. We have clients from around the world, each only available during a gap in a particular planting or growing season.
Because we are a Flight School team of participants, we can uniquely appeal to the private, commercial, aerobatic or the Ag Pilot in you with quality people who have qualified real-world experience that will keep you motivated, informed, entertained and challenged so you can both accomplish your training desires and education plan while completely enjoying your time spent training with us.
Yes, we do offer an Introduction to Ag Training Demo flight. This flight includes Pre-Flight and Post-Flight Instruction as needed and we ask that you plan to spend a couple of hours with us. Upon signing up for Ag Pilot training, the Ag Pilot Introduction Course fee is credited toward your Ag Pilot training purchase.
Our Ag Pilot Flight Training is all done in aircraft which are primarily “Ag planes”. Our primary training "planes" are a Single Place Pawnee, a Two Place Cessna 305-L19, and a Two Place AgCat.
Currently we have several small houses for rent individually or as a shared accomodation with our other school students. There are several hotels and even RV campground accomodations available as well.
A proficient operating tailwheel understanding is required when receiving Ag Pilot flight training. Ag Flight operates with an intense understanding of proficient flight and safe flight practices. Actual tailwheel training is more than just an understanding or the tailwheel endorsement. Depending on a student's skill, if required, we offer a tailwheel refresher or complete tailwheel training for our students.
Yes. You will need a pesticide license, oftentimes received after a passing grade on a written exam, and you will need to apply and receive an aerial applicator’s license for the state you are working in. You can find additional information by contacting each state’s Dept of Agriculture or on their website.
