Generalities

The flight formation is carried out on Cessna 152, 172 or Katana DA20-C1. It can be started immediately after the training of private pilot licence. Tax credits are available for those who wish to make a career in the industry.

Note: daltonism is somehow an handicap to the commercial licence as it prevents the pilot to fly during the night. Therefore, a candidate suffering from daltonism can obtain his commercial licence, but it will be restricted to fly during the day only.

The professional licence can also be considered as a formation of improvement, for a private pilot who wishes to have a greater autonomy by raising his safety and qualification level.
