PPL Theoretical Training (100 hrs): The purpose of the theoretical training is to teach the syllabus for the nine theoretical subjects and to pass the relevant in-house exams. For this purpose, “Dento” has created its own e-learning platform which allows online learning, followed by a minimum of 2 days classroom review and then relevant in-house exams.

PPL Flight Training (45 hrs): Once a minimum level of theoretical training is completed, the students could commence flight training congruently with their theoretical training.

Note: Prior to the 1st solo, all students should obtain a Class I Medical. Additionally, all trainees should demonstrate at least an Operational Level of English Language Proficiency (ELP) before their PPL skill test.

Night Rating (5 hrs theory + 5hrs practical): This phase also includes theoretical and practical training. Therefore, here too, “Dento” has created its own e-learning platform which allows online learning, followed by instructor briefings and finally by the flight training.

For this purpose, we cooperate with Bristol Ground School and the course is conducted four days per week, as an in-classroom ground school.

Hour Building: This part would be conducted once a week.

Note: Weekly training plan entails, A) theoretical training to be conducted four days per week with 25% of the time been allocated for review, and B) flight training (hour building) to be conducted once weekly.

This phase commences once, A) all the 13 ATP written exams have been passed, and B) have completed the hour building.
