The Fantasy Wings Flying Higher ATPL Programme
In conjunction with The Foundation of Minority Aviators
Fantasy Wings will be launching the Fantasy Wings Flying Higher ATPL Programme - an initiative that extends our mission of addressing diversity in the aviation industry by training Airline Pilots and Flight Instructors. This will be completed between our partner flying schools in the United Kingdom and the United States of America.
There will also be an opportunity to gain direct entry into roles with Airlines and Flight Instructor positions at our partner flight schools should they be available at the end of training.
This is why we have created a programme that is between £17,000 and £35,000 cheaper than similar programmes currently on offer, to create more financial accessibility for individuals who have been historically excluded from the industry due to the cost of training.
Finally, we are partnering with a financial partner to offer loan products to those wishing to train who cannot self-fund - this product will be repayable over a reasonable term once training has been completed.
Our Programme will Include the following
- Airline Transport Pilots Licence Ground School and Exam Fees
- Private Pilot Licence
- Hour Building
- Night Rating
- Multi Engine Rating
- Commercial Pilot Licence
- Multi Engine Instrument Rating
- Upset Prevention and Recovery Training
