The Fly Eagle Sport business model uses a modern, efficient, multi-roll aircraft to teach all levels of flight training. That means our sport pilots are learning in well equipped aircraft capable of teaching advanced flight courses. This is considered to be “overkill” to some, but we believe that in today’s complex flight environment, our clients should be prepared and ready to meet unpredictable demands.

Pilot Endorsements Included:

  • >Vh87 knots
  • “D” airspace (B and C airspace can be added post program)

This is the ultimate value for someone wanting to learn to fly at our most basic level! The average sport pilot program cost in the Phoenix area only includes flight/ground instruction and aircraft rental. We feel this can be misleading to potential clients, as there are many costs not included in the advertised price. These hidden costs can add up, resulting in an ever-expanding price point for completion. We offer the confidence of completing the course at known price point. For more info, check out our FAQ's. We include: 

  • Renters Insurance
  • Headset
  • E6B Flight Computer
  • Plotter
  • Knee Board
  • Log Book
  • Flight Bag
  • 35 hours of aircraft rental (realistic hours needed, not FAA minimums) 
  • All flight instructor time

Dollar for dollar, our value is unbeatable! It’s clear why we are the “affordable flying solution”! Learn more by contacting us HERE.
